How to run private gallery workflow from command line?

I like using the gallery for source control but am stuck on how to run gallery workflows from our enterprise scheduling system (Control-M)

For workflows saved as yxmd files, I start them using command line.

I need to know how to reference a yxmd stored in gallery in command line

From the Alteryx documentation below how might MyWorkflow.yxmd be coded for a workflow stored in our private gallery?

Workflows

AlteryxEngineCmd.exe MyWorkflow.yxmd

This function runs a standard Alteryx workflow (.yxmd) at command line. It is useful for a series of workflows as a batch that needs to be run in sequence.

Thanks for the lead @patrick_mcauliffe

Deep into the blog was a reference to the gallery api https://gallery.alteryx.com/api-docs/#!/workflows.json/EnqueuePOST

which looks promising, but pretty far past my current skillset.

I will shift my search to looking for gallery api examples.
