This can be really handy in some cases and can be integrated with your local cron if you want to e.g. trigger the job to run regularly | |

Sorry, what I actually meant in my previous comment is, admin_post_my_action runs only for logged-in users, so your remote call likely didn't call your function because the request wasn't authenticated. But how about using the REST API instead, by creating your own endpoint?
