[SOLVED] Jenkins Build periodically with parameters cron expression

Issue

I only want to run once in a month, every 3rd Friday at 11 pm. I tried a cron expression “0 23 ? * FRI#3” in the Jenkinsfile. It shows a syntax error. What would be the correct expression?

        parameterizedCron('''
            0 23 ? * FRI#3 %INPUT-CHOICE=XXX; HOSTS=YYY
        ''')

Solution

I am not sure FRI#3 is supported, but you can emulate that behavior with 0 23 15-21 * 5

Translated: run at 23:00/11 PM (0 23), on a Friday (5), on the 15th up to and including the 21th (15-21) day of the month, each month (*). On the 15-21th day of each month only one Friday can occur; the 3rd Friday of the month.
