Unless configured to explicitly blanket allow without authentication I don't think you can run sudo from cron
Yeah, they got the sudo placement inside out. You "sudo crontab -e" and put your commands there that need sudo, you don't sudo the individual commands in the regular user's crontab.
With systemd this would not be an issue , you just need to set up a timer for your service and some policy rules /s?
