To use Drush cron, select from the following methods:
In each of the following examples:
[app] is the name of your application on Cloud Platform.[env] is your environment (typically one of dev, test, or prod).[site_URL] is your environment’s URL (as listed on the Cloud > Domains page). If you are using Drupal multisite, your cron jobs are specific to each website in the multisite installation. Use the URL of the website in the installation you want to target.You can execute alternative Drush cron commands using the following syntax:
drush --uri=http://[site-uri] -d -v cron &>> /shared/logs/drush-cron.logCron jobs must always include a logging statement.
For infrastructure where you want a single hook, you can also run a specific cron hook directly. The command structure will vary based on your Drupal version and module.
drush -v ev "mymodule_cron();" &>> /shared/logs/drush-cron.log
