nrF52 IOT SDK Run function periodically

[amjabb]

I am using a nrf52 DK and running the IOT Cloud CoAP Client example in the SDK. I need to run multiple functions periodically, and I need to be able to change the periods at which the functions run at dynamically. The example is making use of iot_timer_init and I can see that it is initializing a couple functions to run periodically, however once they are initialized I am not able to change the values. I am wondering what the best way to do this using the SDK. So that ideally normal program execution is still taking place while my functions are getting called.

I attempted following the tutorial on app_timer and it seems to be working, however it is never switching back to my iot timer once the timer is turned on. Also I should mention that the function which I am sending periodically are coap requests, so perhaps they are bound to the iot_timer?
