Programmatically authenticate with F5 VPN

I have a question regarding a project I have that requires me to use the F5 VPN. 
 
In short, we have the following:  
  1. a PHP application on a server (Digital Ocean)
    • this application needs to receive data updates every 30m from an external data source

  2. a database on a server managed by a different source (external to both our team and environments)
    • to access this DB, we must first sign into the F5 VPN

What I'm looking for is a manner in which we can programmatically auth with F5 VPN 
so we can achieve a data pull programmatically every 30m per our requirements.
 
Any insight is greatly appreciated
