    At OP request this answer details how to step-by-step, duplicate user environment in crond context.

    In crontab, put a call to a shell script.

    */3 * * * * /home/userX/dir/exportmanager.sh

    In the shell, echo or/and set environment before calling curl to have similar conditions of your own environment.

    Https use SSL keys, how curl looks for this keys, in which certificate repository?

    See --capath option.

    #!/bin/bash
set VAR=value
/usr/bin/curl -k https://192.169.30.126/joomlandk2/index.php/exportmanager\
   >/home/userX/dir/exportmanager.log
