Scripted input interval

SS1
Path Finder

Hi,

For the scripted input setup i want the script to run only at specific time i.e. 7 AM EST or 8 AM EST. How do i achieve that?

lets say below is my current setup, i want this to run at 8 AM EST instead of 60  second interval

[script://./bin/scripts/massage.sh]
sourcetype = mysourcetype
index = myindex
interval = 60.0

Set the interval to be a cron schedule, e.g.

0 8 * * *

which will run at 8am every day
