Assuming you want to run a controller/method/argument on CodeIgniter then try using command line interface (CLI). (Documentation)

You need to supply the full system path to CodeIgniter's index.php file. I'm making assumptions about that path. Substitute your systems path to index.php.

php /var/www/website/public_html/index.php update_system/employee test_notification

Other assumptions I'm making are that the employee controller is on this path /application/controllers/update_system/ and the method you want to run is test_notification.

Know that when using the CLI you cannot use the session class. If you attempt to use sessions the CLI request will fail.

On cron job, paths are not known. So, prefix curl with its path.

If curl is in /usr/bin/, you shoul write:

/usr/bin/curl -s https://example.com/ >/dev/null 2>&1`
