How to run Shell script through crontab or cron job on windows

I want to Do the Backup and restore with automated Process. I am looking for MongoDB native features as it takes very less time to do the backup and restores as compare to Other NPM Modules.

So for that, I have created the Shell script which is as follow:

#!/bin/sh
DIR=`date +%m%d%y`
DEST=/db_backups/$DIR
mkdir $DEST
mongodump -h 127.0.0.1:27017 -d mydbname -o $DEST

Now I want to Run this script through cron. What is the best approach for doing this? I am on nodejs Windows Environment. Any help is really appreciated.

For that we have to open CMD and create the Job which can be run according to your reqirement. Code will be on CMD is

schtasks /create /tn "mongodb_automated_job" /tr "location/mongo.sh" /sc minute /mo 1

It will run every minute.
