The file task copy currrently has options If file exists to do Nothing or Overwrite.

Can you add an option to only copy if newer?

It would be great if the log was available from the dashboard or task management window instead of having to open it from the program folder.

More detail in logs would be nice also, especially then the status is Error

Hello, 
first of all thank you for this super tool.

I want to send cyclically an email with all PDF files of a folder.
The path is in the dynamic formula style: ="C:\Data\"&"*.pdf".
Unfortunately I get an Error. Can you help me?

I'm getting a different result running the same task on schedule time and when using the Run Task button..


I have an schedule task to run everyday a python script which requires a path as an argument.

On the schedule task, the argument is passed as "C:\\PATH\\" and it not fires the script correctly.

If I manually run the same taks, using the "Run Task" button, the argument is passed as "C:\\PATH" and the script runs correctly.

Os the task configuration the "Script parameters" field has C:\PATH as its value.

Hi

After last update I am receiving error at app start:

Hi all,
congratulations for the great software! It seems to work very well, but I still have a problem.

I have programmed some tasks with the following logic:

Task 1: Check hard drive for files every 15 minutes (simply try to rename two files)
Task 2: If it does not find the files (trigger task1 result in error) download via action "map&audio.bat"
Task3: if task2 is done ... go ahead through the rest of the operations

so task3 will start only if presence of the files on hard disk is true.

The problem is: task 1 does not start by itself even if NEXT RUN shows the correct scheduled time

where am i wrong?

Hi again -


So I need to achieve the following:

EG A podcast file comes in with the file name:  How to grow a marrow.mp3

Task 1 - Make a copy of it in an archive folder.
Task 2 - Change name of the How to grow a marrow.mp3 to VEGPOD.mp3
Task 3 - Have the new VEGPOD.mp3 replace/overwrite the old VEGPOD.mp3

Situation is a main folder called Vegpod where the podcast software downloads the new shows.
In it a folder called Archive containing all the old shows.
A file called VEGPOD.mp3 which is always the latest edition of the show.

When the next edition of the show comes through, called say  Tasty tomatoes.mp3, it downloads to the Vegpod folder and sits there with the Archive folder and the (now) older VEGPOD.mp3. When the file renaming task runs eg

File path     C:\Users\Radio\Music\Podcasts\Vegpod\*.mp3
New name  C:\Users\Radio\Music\Podcasts\Vegpod\VEGPOD.mp3

... it picks up both Tasty tomatoes.mp3 and VEGPOD.mp3 and therefore fails. I need it to rename Tasty tomatoes only.

So is there a way to have the wildcard exclude the word VEGPOD ?  Something like ...

File path     C:\Users\Radio\Music\Podcasts\Vegpod\[VEGPOD]*.mp3    ?

I have tried using another method that moves VEGPOD.mp3 to it's own foder (which therefore excludes it from the File path C:\Users\Radio\Music\Podcasts\Vegpod\*.mp3. The problem is that when the Trigger runs (on the timer) and no new file has arrived, it deletes VEGPOD.mp3 meaning no file to play. This was the reason for my enquiry last week re the file created Trigger - it would only run when a new file was there to run on.

A long winded explanation.

Any way of getting this to work ?

Thx

RoboIntern is a nifty tool helping me a great deal with file management. A question:

I subscribe to multiple podcasts, with all subs being checked once an hour. When a new podcast is created, is it possible to use the File Created Trigger to run the actions basically as soon as the new podcast file has downloaded ?

I'm currently using the time function to check the folder at certain intervals through the day/week but if it's possible for the file created trigger to do that it would be better. Maybe I need some sort of a formula to make it work ?

Many Thx

When I execute a SFTP task to download files, the application crashes.
Where can I get more log with the reason(s)? 
Eventviewer is no real use, but I share the log.
