OpenShift or Kubernetes - Create a Job from CronJob using curl command - kubernetes

Question

I would like to create job from cronjob using curl command.
I am aware of kubernetes kubectl or openshift oc commands. The following command works. But I am looking for curl command.
Kubernetes:
kubectl create job --from=cronjob/
OpenShift
oc create job --from=cronjob/
Please help. I am using OpenShift 3.11.

You can run the kubectl command with high verbosity level and it should show the curl command and the request body which is internally being used.
kubectl create job --from=cronjob/test-job --v=10
