How to configure scheduled task as a cron style entry in WSO2 ESB.

This article explains, how to add a CRON job to run a scheduled task for once a week. This particular example demonstrates a scheduled task to run on every Tuesday at 10:27 AM.

Please find below the CRON style to run the scheduled task every Tuesday at 10:27 AM:

0 27 10 ? * TUE *

Please find below the Task configuration which uses the above CRON style:

<task name="sampleTask"
         class="org.apache.synapse.startup.tasks.MessageInjector"
         group="synapse.simple.quartz">
      <trigger cron="0 27 10 ? * TUE *"/>
      <property xmlns:task="http://www.wso2.org/products/wso2commons/tasks" name="message">
         <test xmlns="">heloooooooo</test>
      </property>
      <property xmlns:task="http://www.wso2.org/products/wso2commons/tasks"
                name="proxyName"
                value="testProxy"/>
      <property xmlns:task="http://www.wso2.org/products/wso2commons/tasks"
                name="soapAction"
                value="soap11"/>
</task>

We received below logs for above task configuration:
