Migrate from Railway Cron

Find your Railway cron services

In your Railway project, identify services configured to run on a cron schedule.

Expose logic as HTTP endpoints

Add HTTP routes to your Railway web service for each cron task.

// Express
app.post('/cron/task', verifySecret, async (req, res) => {
  await runTask();
  res.json({ ok: true });
});

Create JustRun jobs

For each Railway cron service, create a JustRun job with the same schedule and your Railway web service URL.

Add authentication

Set a shared secret header in JustRun job settings and validate it in your route handler.

Disable Railway cron services

Once verified, delete or disable the Railway cron services. Keep Railway for your web services and databases.
