New API functions, new group actions

 4 new API functions have been added to FastCron:

  • cron_batch_add to add multiple cronjobs at once.
  • cron_batch_edit to update multiple cronjobs at once.
  • cron_batch_delete to delete multiple cronjobs at once.
  • cron_group_edit to update multiple cronjobs in a group at once.

The new function documentation can be found here: https://www.fastcron.com/documentation/api/cron#batch-add-action

It's now recommended to use the API function in the format target_action e.g. cron_add instead of the old format cron.add. However, the old format will be maintained indefinitely for legacy uses.

3 new group actions have been added:

  • Edit cronjobs: to edit all cronjobs in a group at once
  • Delete cronjobs: delete all cronjobs in a group
  • Delete group & cronjobs: delete a group and its cronjobs.

Team user limit on legacy plans

Hi,

If you're having a legacy account plan (Silver, Gold, Platinum, and Diamond) with the Team option, a new limit of 5 team users has been added.

This means that you can add up to 4 extra team members aside from yourself, the account owner.

If you exceeded the new limit, all existing team members can continue accessing your account as usual. You can also edit an existing user and replace them with another user by changing the email address. However, you won't be able to add new team members.

It's recommended to remove inactive members. FastCron will mark users that haven't logged in for 6 months as inactive.

If you want to increase the team member limit, and the price change is too steep, please contact me and I'll offer a discount.

Run another cronjob after execution

You can now run another cronjob after a cronjob's successful execution. You should also disable the target cronjob if you want it to completely depend on the source cronjob.image.png


This will double the daily execution count in the source cronjob. The feature is available in the premium plans.
