Run Azure function that alters all player data,I am looking to accomplish the following:

I am looking to create a server function (azure function) that does the following:

- Executes at a random time in the future (example: will execute some time between 2-24 hours from current time)

- When it executes sends a notification to all players (Currently active players in the app should have a function called and those not active get an in app notification)

- When the function executes it will alter some data on every player

What is the best way to accomplish this with Playfab?

Majority of the requirements can be fulfilled via PlayFab Scheduled Task, except "Executes at a random time".

Scheduled Task is using Cron expression to define the recurring time, which cannot be random.

The second and third parts can be done via Azure Function.
