Since the time the other answer was given, suggesting to call REST APIs from Python, a python package has been published.

With the python package, you create Python objects (classes) for the Folder, jobs, and then run it, all directly from Python. Have a look at https://controlm.github.io/ctm-python-client/ for more information.

It allows your code to be more structured, and it is simpler to program it with loops and branches, parameters, and so on.

It can be done using Control-M Automation API. You can use the following link as a reference for the python code:

https://github.com/controlm/automation-api-quickstart/tree/master/control-m/201-call-rest-api-using-python

You can use the following link to browse the Control-M Swagger documentation:

http://aapi-swagger-doc.s3-website-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/#/run/runNow

It seems like /run/runNow endpoint will do the trick
