Schedule to run a method Daily 8 AM in ASP.NET MVC

Question

how Call Method in ASP.NET MVC For example, in one method, bring out a list of people who are born and send them a congratulatory message.

Answer 1

There is no code provided but generally, there are several options I could think of:

1. The built-in BackgroundService
   https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/fundamentals/host/hosted-services?view=aspnetcore-3.1&tabs=visual-studio

you can create a structure like this in the backgroundservice:

protected override async Task ExecuteAsync(CancellationToken stoppingToken)
{
    while (!stoppingToken.IsCancellationRequested)
    {
        //Do work

        await Task.Delay(timeSpan, stoppingToken);
    }
}

2. Quartz task scheduler, which might be overkill for your task.

3. A long-running timer (not recommended)

4. Windows Task Scheduler Task on the Server, triggering an API Method.
