I am quite new in Flask. I am stuck with a specific issue.

I have a requirement where I need to send automated reminder emails at specific intervals. Let's say, every 10 days an automated reminder will be sent to the users who did not fill up a survey form.

How can I achieve this in python flask?

Any help will be appreciable.

  • You could create a [Flask-Script](https://flask-script.readthedocs.io/en/latest/) and run it via cron. – Klaus D. May 29 '20 at 10:56

You can use flask mail a flask extension that does exactly what you need. You can send an email every X seconds and when he verified it it would stop sending the email. I'd suggest a simple boolean. If you want you can use BackgroundScheduler(). In order to send it every x seconds.
