Comment:

 Good catch, not sure why I overlooked this. You are correct that it is
 because the rest endpoint isn't set in this scenario, but it would also
 fail because of the lack of auth.

 Creating a cron-token and setting it as the nonce value would probably be
 needed here to bypass the need for an active authenticated user session,
 but shouldn't be a difficult thing to get added.
