Let me rephrase my question - i have to look for documents with keywords “IT Assets Inventory” in the directory. then with that list of documents, i need to compare all of them and only download the latest one with latest version number.

Hi @sophiey

Maybe try using the For Each File in Folder activity as @Parvathy mentioned earlier. Add the phrase that you are looking for “IT Assets Inventory” to the filter and sort it by the CreatedDateTime in descending order. If I am correct, that would return all the files that match the filter with the latest file that you should download at the top. With that you can then use one of the download file activities to download the file.

Here is a link to where you can read more on the filter function for the For Each File in Folder activity: Activities - For Each File in Folder

Hope this helps.
