magento: is there a way to “run profile” with cron?

Question

I have an export profile on magento 1.6 and I can run it manually (\"Run profile in popup\"), but I need it to run automatically every day. Is there a way to set up a cron job t

Answer 1

There are other things to consider, but in short, all you need is

Mage::getModel("dataflow/profile")
    ->load(5) // id of the desired profile
    ->run();
