scheduling a web request to a url once an hour

I am really confused about scheduling things on fly. All I want to do is hit a web url once an hour or so to go out and grab some data. Do I need to create another machine to do this? Or is there an easier way through my web app? It is a remix app.

If you’re looking for something native to fly, then you’d want to check out scheduling machines. Given your usecase, I’d set up a timer (i.e setInterval function in JavaScript) to do this. For more reliable schedule, there are different services out there ranging in complexity (e.g Cron Atlas).
