Schedule HTTP requests to run automatically - no server, no code. Ping webhooks, keep servers alive, trigger APIs on any interval.
Run jobs every 5, 15, 30, or 60 minutes, every 6 or 12 hours, or daily. Pro plans unlock 5-minute intervals.
GET, POST, PUT, PATCH, DELETE - with custom headers and a request body. Works with any REST API or webhook.
See the last 20 executions for each job - status code, response time, success/fail, and exact timestamp.
Pause any job without deleting it. Resume it later and it picks up on the configured interval immediately.
Set Authorization headers, API keys, Content-Type, or any custom header your endpoint requires.
Jobs cannot target internal network addresses (localhost, 192.168.x, 10.x). Only public URLs are allowed.
| Plan | Jobs | Min interval | Price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Free | 1 | Daily | $0 |
| Starter | 3 | Hourly | $5/yr |
| Pro | 10 | 5 minutes | $1/mo |
| Elite | 100 | 5 minutes | $6/mo |
Log in to your ToolBit dashboard and click the Cron Jobs tab in the left sidebar.
Enter a name, your target URL, HTTP method, optional headers and body, and choose an interval.
The job runs at the chosen interval starting from creation. The first run happens within one interval period.
Expand any job to see the last 20 runs - status codes, response times, and success/fail status for each execution.
A cron job is a task that runs automatically on a schedule. In ToolBit's case, it means making an HTTP request to a URL at a regular interval - every hour, every day, etc. - without you having to do it manually.
Common uses include: keeping a Heroku dyno alive (pinging it to prevent sleep), triggering a Zapier or Make webhook on a schedule, running a database cleanup endpoint, sending scheduled API calls, refreshing a cache, or automating any task your application exposes as an HTTP endpoint.
Yes. Select POST as the method and enter JSON or any text in the body field. You can also set a Content-Type header (e.g. application/json) to match your API's expectations.
The failure is logged in the run history with the status code and response time. The job continues to run on schedule - ToolBit does not automatically disable jobs on failure.
No. ToolBit blocks requests to private IP ranges (localhost, 10.x, 192.168.x, 172.16-31.x) and .local/.internal hostnames to prevent SSRF attacks. Only publicly accessible URLs are supported.
Yes - one job, daily minimum interval. If you need more jobs or shorter intervals, the Starter plan ($5/yr) gives you 3 jobs with hourly intervals, and the Pro plan ($1/mo) gives you 10 jobs running as often as every 5 minutes.
1 free cron job. Daily interval. No card required.
