## Running bin scripts on a schedule
324
+
325
+
Every bin script supports being run on a schedule using cron syntax. Simply pass the `--cron` flag followed by the cron expression when running the script. Example:
326
+
327
+
```sh
328
+
pnpm payload run ./myScript.ts --cron "0 * * * *"
329
+
```
330
+
331
+
This will use the `run` bin script to execute the specified script on the defined schedule.
Finally, you can process jobs via the bin script that comes with Payload out of the box. By default, this script will run jobs from the `default` queue, with a limit of 10 jobs per invocation:
174
174
175
175
```sh
176
-
npx payload jobs:run
176
+
pnpm payload jobs:run
177
177
```
178

179

You can override the default queue and limit by passing the `--queue` and `--limit` flags:
180
180
181
181
```sh
182
-
npx payload jobs:run --queue myQueue --limit 15
182
+
pnpm payload jobs:run --queue myQueue --limit 15
183
183
```
184
184
185
185
If you want to run all jobs from all queues, you can pass the `--all-queues` flag:
186
186
187
187
```sh
188
-
npx payload jobs:run --all-queues
188
+
pnpm payload jobs:run --all-queues
189
189
```
190
190

In addition, the bin script allows you to pass a `--cron` flag to the `jobs:run` command to run the jobs on a scheduled, cron basis:
192
192
193
193
```sh
194
-
npx payload jobs:run --cron "*/5 * * * *"
194
+
pnpm payload jobs:run --cron "*/5 * * * *"
195
+
```
196
+
197
+
You can also pass `--handle-schedules` flag to the `jobs:run` command to make it schedule jobs according to configured schedules:
198
+
199
+
```sh
200
+
pnpm payload jobs:run --cron "*/5 * * * *" --queue myQueue --handle-schedules # This will both schedule jobs according to the configuration and run them

You can disable this behavior by setting `disableScheduling: true` in your `autorun` configuration, or by passing `disableScheduling=true` to the `/api/payload-jobs/run` endpoint. This is useful if you want to handle scheduling manually, for example, by using a cron job or a serverless function that calls the `/api/payload-jobs/handle-schedules` endpoint or the `payload.jobs.handleSchedules()` local API method.

### Bin Scripts

Payload provides a set of bin scripts that can be used to handle schedules. If you're already using the `jobs:run` bin script, you can set it to also handle schedules by passing the `--handle-schedules` flag:
41
+
42
+
```sh
43
+
pnpm payload jobs:run --cron "*/5 * * * *" --queue myQueue --handle-schedules # This will both schedule jobs according to the configuration and run them

```

If you only want to handle schedules, you can use the dedicated `jobs:handle-schedules` bin script:
