I tried this script and replaced with my url but it did not run in task scheduler, even though the history said it did run.

Example, use Curl - stackoverflow. What i need is not a php curl script as that is not a problem to write , what I needs is for windows to run these tasks automatically server side through the task scheduler. Add a comment.

If this works I will mark this as answered. This would have worked if not for the security built into the CRM itself. For anyone else not having to worry about unique security tokens generated first before sending user and pass to mysql database this will be your answer.

I have marked this as answer as this should help someone in the future. Making miss the days of linux haha. Thanks for the help though this was a great answer though.
