I need to fire a cron schedule every 70th minute. For example if one fired at 12:00pm then 2nd one should be at 1:10pm and 3rd one should be at 2:20pm and so on. How do I achieve this? Cronmaker.com suggests this, 0 0/70 * 1/1 * ? *

But when it goes past 60 minutes, it only fires every hour. Not the specfied minute which is above 60. Please advice.

every 70 minutes - that's not really a job suitable to cron triggers - how about an Interval/Simple Trigger

C#

trigger = TriggerBuilder.Create()
    .WithIdentity("your-trigger", "your-group")
    .WithSimpleSchedule(x => x
        .WithIntervalInMinutes(70)
        .RepeatForever())
    .Build();

(you might need/want a .EndAt() clause as well)
