Make a HTTP GET request from iOS device from background task

I want to perform a scheduled background task from iOS device for perform an Http GET API call to my backend server. I went through iOS background tasks documentations, and I found out Background fetch will be a good solution for this problem. But according to the documentation they are not allowing to schedule these kind of tasks in background. I want to know that is there any work around for this?
