When there are more files, based on what do you want to pick the correct one?
To "rename" file, just specify the target name in the
To "rename" file, just specify the target name in the
get command:
"get -delete *.xml newname" `- Xaviez
So I edited the script with following:
And it works for now since its only 1 file with XML but will be an issue if there is more files.
I tried some with the filemask command but no success yet.
The rename script I used a ps1 script with task scheduler:
"get -delete *.xml" `And it works for now since its only 1 file with XML but will be an issue if there is more files.
I tried some with the filemask command but no success yet.
The rename script I used a ps1 script with task scheduler:
$folder_path = "SMB share"
$old_name_prefix = "XXXX"
$new_name_prefix = "XXX"
$today_date = Get-Date -Format "yyyyMMdd"
Set-Location -Path $folder_path
Get-ChildItem -Path . -Filter "$old_name_prefix*" | ForEach-Object {
$new_filename = "$new_name_prefix" + "." + $today_date + $_.Extension
Rename-Item -Path $_.FullName -NewName $new_filename
Write-Output "File '$($_.Name)' has been renamed to '$new_filename'"
return
}
Write-Output "No file found starting with '$old_name_prefix'"

Make transfer with script
Hello,
I hope someone can help me with my issue, I have always loved WinSCP and used it, thanks so much for a great program. I've just started to make some scripts and I stumble across a issue now.
I need a script that moves from a FTP to a SMB share. The file that comes to FTP changes name everyday since it takes actual day in the ending of the file.
I managed to get a script function well but that was when file was same name all the time. How do I create a script that takes this file and moves it to a SMB then renames it.
The rename is always the same that should land on SMB share.
The file I transfer from FTP is always the same name in the beginning 6 digits.
This is "my" generated script without the rename and when the file was same name all the time:
