I have made one script (addproducts.php) in my Magento root folder for adding products programmatically. For now, I am hitting this script in URL as localhost/addproducts.php. What should I do to execute this script through cron job. How can I set this script to run at regular time interval?

  • You can create Magento 2 module, then create Cron method and set that on crontab. Or you can directly set your script to cron through cpanel (crons) or if you have shell access then run crontab -e then you will get an editor where you can add your file as well. Feb 5, 2020 at 12:45

You can do this by using server hosting cPanel 'Add cron job' feature by specifying script file url and time of execution.

Also you can do this by creating a cron job using a module. For reference follow this link https://www.mageplaza.com/devdocs/magento-2-create-cron-job/
