# Cron Monitoring Updates for Developers

The **Cron Monitoring** feature has been relocated and restructured to improve accessibility and functionality. Previously, it was found in the sidebar under **"Crons"**, but it has now been split into two different locations:

## [Timeline View (Overview of Cron Jobs)](https://docs.sentry.io/product/crons/alerts-backend-insights-migration.md#timeline-view-overview-of-cron-jobs)

* The timeline view that provided an overview of all cron jobs has moved.
* You can now find it under **Insights > Backend > Cron Monitors (Tab)**.

## [Managing Cron Monitors](https://docs.sentry.io/product/crons/alerts-backend-insights-migration.md#managing-cron-monitors)

* The section for managing all of your cron monitors is now under **Alerts**.
* **Cron Monitors are now a new type of Sentry Alert**, allowing for better integration and management within the Alerts system.
* To filter and view all cron monitors easily, use the **Alert Type** filter for "Cron Monitors".
