Setting up cron job in google app engine python

Question

I\'m just getting started with Google App Engine so I\'m still learning how to configure everything. I wrote a script called parsexml.py that I want to run every 10 minutes or s

Answer 1

The url is used to run the py script for your cron job

basically in your app.yaml

you have

app.yaml
handlers:
- url: /helloworld.py
  script: helloworld.py

in cron.yaml

cron.yaml
- description: scrape xml
  url: /helloworld.py
  schedule: every 10 minutes

if you want the cron to run hello world you have to set the url as url: /helloworld.py
