Save and Retrieve File

currently we save it as “File Name_Date” so in later stage we can fetch the same file and perform further operation.

There are ways to achieve this:

1. Well One way is to check with path exists activity with file name and if it exists then append a counter it for identification for e.g. “File_Name_Date_1”.

2. As i knows if you will download the same file name twice and so on windows will keep mark or name like “main(1)”,"main(2). and you can fetch the files from directory on the basis of “creation time”.

Sort file and store attributes

Please try this: folder_path = “D:\TestExcel” dir_info = new DirectoryInfo(folder_path) dir_info.GetFiles().OrderBy(Function(x) x.CreationTime) *Note- if you wants to sort on the basis of latest to old by replacing “OrderBy” to" OrderByDescending". I have attached 2 workflow named as follows: Sort_Dir_files_Creation_time.xaml //For to sort files on the basis of dates cretion from last to new textdatahandling.xaml // For to Handle your text file data. Yes i…

or also you can search a similar file name pattern then process them .

Search file from a string variable with filter
