Cron Jobs view#

A CronJob in Kubernetes is a resource type used for scheduling time-based jobs. It allows you to create and manage jobs that run at specified times or intervals based on a cron expression. These jobs are commonly used for tasks like periodic backups, data syncing, and regular maintenance activities in a Kubernetes cluster. See Kubernetes Documentation: CronJob.

The Cron Jobs table lists the cluster CronJobs. You can click the CronJob and open the details panel with comprehensive information and access to various options for that CronJob. To find CronJobs, you can filter CronJobs by namespaces using the Namespace drop-down list and search for specific CronJobs using the Search Cron Jobs input field.

You can resize and reorder the table columns. Drag the column border in the table header to change the width. To change the column position, drag its header left or right. Also, you can sort objects in ascending or descending order by clicking the header of a column and configure the column visibility. By default, the table consists of the following columns:
