I registered a cron job in the google appengine. It runs fine. Since I deleted the whole content of the app, I want this job to not run anymore. I don't know how to do it.

You can stop a single cron job by removing its line from the crontab file. To do that, run the crontab -e command and then delete the line for the specific task. Alternatively, you can stop the cron job by commenting it out in the crontab file.
By default, crontab file protections are set up so that you cannot inadvertently delete a crontab file by using the rm command. Instead, use the crontab -r command to remove crontab files. By default, the crontab -r command removes your own crontab file.
What does * mean in Cron? The asterisk * is used as a wildcard in Cron. * sets the execution of a task to any minute, hour, day, weekday, or month.
In Python, to delete all cron jobs, change the cron.yaml file to just contain:
cron:
In Java, to delete all cron jobs, change the cron.xml file to just contain:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<cronentries/>
