I need to execute each day a Linux command due to system and security. How to manage this using WHM?

An example: 

/usr/local/cpanel/scripts/clean_user_php_sessions

  Hey there!  If you are running this command every day it would likely be best to set this up as a cron, although there isn't a method to do this directly through WHM.  We have details on how you can set this up here:

  I need to add a profile for S3.

  aws --version

  -bash: /usr/local/bin/aws: Permission denied

  As I understand it can be added as a root Terminal access:

  aws configure --profile wasabi

  "aws" is not a typical Linux command unless you are using the AWS CLI tools mentioned here:

  https://aws.amazon.com/cli/
