Schedule an Class at a interval of 5 minutes
I am trying to Schedule an class at the interval of 5 minutes but am not getting any idea how to perform it, i have seen some examples but they are not working properly please help if any body can.
timeperiod: specify the time frequency with which the job should run
scheduler class name: scheduler class that calls your batch apex class.
timeperiod should be specified in below format:
Seconds Minutes Hours Day_of_month Month Day_of_week optional_year
For example, to run every 5 mins the expression would be : 0 5 * * * ?
here '*' means every time against the specified parameter, every hour, every day of month, every day of week and '?' means no specific value. Thus, this expression means every 5 minutes. So, the system.schedule('testname',0 35 * * * ?,schedulerclass()); would call the schedulerclass every 30 minutes when the statement executes.You can visit salesforce documentation to know more on system.schedule parameters.
Lets write a simple batch apex class, its scheduler class and then, execute system.schedule method to run that batch apex every 5 minutes.
Batch Apex Class: Scheduler class along with method that will Can scheduler class every 5 minutes:
Now, we have to just execute the "SchedulerMethod" once, this will keep on calling the batch apex every 5 minutes. We can use developer console to execute this method. Just execute below statement to call the method: ScheduleBatchApexDemo.SchedulerMethod(); You can monitor the batch apex being called every 5 minutes from: set up--> monitoring jobs

'0 5 * * * ?' means the 5th minute of every hour, NOT every five minutes!
