Cronjobs on Github with Github Actions
In the root of your repository create a folder .github/workflows
and in that
folder create a file a file cron.yaml
. This file can be named whatever you
wish. But it has to be a yaml
file.
File below (.github/workflows/cron.yaml
) describes an action that will trigger
every six hours and it will curl example.com.
However. Be sure that you have enough credits. Free account is not that generous with the minutes they give you for free. Check more about GitHub Actions usage on their website https://docs.github.com/en/actions.

on:
schedule:
- cron: '0 */6 * * *'
