ChangelogA cron job is simply a scheduled task that runs regularly on your server. Import Export Suite for WooCommerce Plugin helps you to automate all your exports and imports via FTP profiles and schedules.
The two types of schedulers we use here are:
- WordPress Cron
- Server Cron
Note: To perform scheduling, FTP profile is required. Refer How to create FTP profiles

When the volume of data to be processed necessitates triggering the URL every minute, use server cron scheduling. This option is most preferred:
- to generate a unique URL that can be added to your system in order to trigger the events.
- if you have a separate system to trigger the scheduled events.
