We're moving off Bamboo to GitLab CI. Our main hangup is the scheduled jobs. In Bamboo we used the UI to set cron schedules for builds and deployments.

I need to know the practical way to translate those to GitLab. Do I just define a `cron:` line in the `.gitlab-ci.yml` for each job? What about the schedule history and manual triggers? I'm looking for the simplest method for a small team.

Also, how do you handle secrets for scheduled jobs in the new system? In Bamboo they were in the plan config. Do they move to group or project-level CI/CD variables? Any gotchas with the migration timing?
