Troubleshooting
Use this checklist when translation fails or output does not match intent.
Common errors
- Invalid request: check direction, locale, count range, and required fields.
- Invalid cron: ensure a valid 5-part cron expression.
- Invalid timezone: use an IANA timezone (for example, Europe/Berlin).
- Unsupported expression: rewrite using supported syntax or use Schedule builder.
- Rate limited: wait for the Retry-After window and try again.
Debug checklist
- Trim accidental punctuation and unusual symbols.
- Use clear, explicit time values.
- Check direction: natural language to cron vs cron to plain language.
- Confirm timezone is valid and expected.
Before production
Validate cron output in your scheduler and test in staging first.
