Issue Change root php version

[Doudou]

Server operating system version

AlmaLinux 8.8 (Sapphire Caracal)

Plesk version and microupdate number

Obsidian Version 18.0.48

Hello, I'm trying to execute scheduled task of a Laravel project through Plesk GUI but unfortunately I met the following error : Your Composer dependencies require a PHP version ">= 8.1.0". You are running 7.2.24.
And even though my php version when I'm connected as a user on my subscription the php version is 8.1.0, when I'm connected as root the php version is 7.2.24. Seems like it's that last version that is used by the schedule runner"

Is there any way of changing the root php version ?

Thanks
