07/21/2024, 7:54 PMMy go to solution for that now is a POST endpoint that does the work and a separate task that hits it on a schedule - an ECS task or a K8S job or whatever Heroku calls a scheduled thing. Just a curl container and the platform takes responsibility for scheduling when it runs. Very easy to test.
