hi all, i have a folder containing past 2 days saved excel files. i need your support in fetching only today’s files from the folder. please refer below image and suggest me please.
Please try this…
Directory.getfiles(“folder”,“*” + Now.Tostring(yyyy-MM - dd) + “.xlsx”)
This gives ypu a list of matching file locations
Or
use for each file in folder activity with filter on date same as above
Both would work
Cheers
it is printing system.string as output multiple times
This would give you list…
If you want the files then use arr(0) ,arr(1) etc for each matched file
Arr ia the list of files generated by directory.getfiles
Cheers
hi @Anil_G okay , but i am saving each file in an array right?
This will give you array of files…you are saving each file location as strings in the array
So if you need the location the use arr(0) for the first location
Cheers
can u please provide me the expression for what you’re saying
Directory.getfiles("folder","*" + Now.Tostring("yyyy-MM - dd") + ".xlsx")(0)
This will give you first matched file
So now if you need all then first create variable of array of strings say arr then use assign
Arr = Directory.getfiles("folder","*" + Now.Tostring("yyyy-MM - dd") + ".xlsx")
Now to access each file arr(0) ,arr(1) etc can be used
Or can use a for loop …give arr as input , change the type argument to string and inside use log message with currentitem
Hope this helps
Cheers
