From my python Flask application, i would like to schedule a background Job that runs daily once at a specific time to sync few set of data from another server. I am planning to use schedule library for to schedule the data sync job. I was thinking to launch the schedule along with application start up itself. Please suggest better way of doing this – Jyothi Abraham Jun 17 '20 at 19:59
@JyothiAbraham Use `BackgroundScheduler` of [APScheduler](https://apscheduler.readthedocs.io/en/stable/modules/schedulers/background.html#apscheduler.schedulers.background.BackgroundScheduler), for implementation with Flask this answer will help: https://stackoverflow.com/a/52068807/8840245 – Mrinal Roy Jul 08 '20 at 07:13
