Schedule a cron job for Python Script on Splunk

[praneethnagu143]

I want to schedule a python script as a cron job on my splunk application so as to automate the data importing to my application.

Using Splunk? Schedule a scripted input.
Not using Splunk? crontab -e

That is not the purpose of this app - the goal of this app is to look at the cron schedules applied to scheduled searches and list out the upcoming iterations of those to look for future overlap.
