How to run snapshot replication via osql

[kodaksmile]

Hi,

We are attempting to allow our operations folks to handle requests to run snapshot replication via a 3rd party scheduling tool. How do you run a snapshot via osql?

I see a couple of commands that look like they might work - sp_start_job @job_name='Name of REPL Snapshot job' or sp_startpublication_snapshot @publication='publication name'.....

suggestions?

I got it to work using the sp_start_job and the name of the snapshot job.
