What is the Cron Expression to trigger for every 62 seconds?

Question

Tried running job on even count with trigger for every 31 seconds.

"*/31 * * * * *"

But it didn't help. The time difference between each schedule needs be 62 seconds.

    Expected:
    Scheduled  at 12:04:08
    Scheduled  at 12:05:10

                                       Allowed values    Allowed special characters   Comment

┌───────────── second (optional)       0-59              * , - /                      
│ ┌───────────── minute                0-59              * , - /

Thanks for the reply patrick. The allowed cron format for seconds i s 0-59. – Deepa Mar 25 '22 at 12:41
Maybe this will help you, setting up multiple cron expressions, until you find the common denominator. https://stackoverflow.com/a/745927/9697453 – Patrick Man Mar 25 '22 at 12:48
