H Guys,

I have setup a task that FTP's files from an external ftp server to our local network, it works and everyone is almost happy.
Now some users would like to know what and when a file is downloaded so I would like to setup another task to send an email if the FTP downloads a file, it would be great if the email could contain a list of the files that were downloaded. Is this possible in VisualCron?

Thanks
Nathan

Hi Nathan,

Yes you could do this. The FTP task has a spesific variable calles List of downloaded files (names only).
In the email task use this variable to show it in the body.

{TASK( your task id ,Result.DownloadedFilesNames)}

One other way is download the files to a specific location.
Use a list files task to list alle the files in there and use the output of this task in the email task.
This is however one task extra.

Regards,
Erik
