embedded picture, but it's always preferable to have it as text as it enables others to copy and paste for answers. — David, Apr 07 '19 at 07:58
If I am not wrong req.body works on names so you need to have “ name “ attribute added to your inputs — LearningPhase, Apr 07 '19 at 08:06

Since the node cron expression is string you can pass the variables in form of string something like

let c="0";
cron.schedule(`${c} * * * * *`, ()=>{ // you can use template literals to pass variable args
// your job runs every minute

})

Like wise you can pass different arguments according to your requirements. You can refer official documentation of node cron here-https://www.npmjs.com/package/node-cron
