$30-250 USD

Paid on delivery
I need a script that will: 1) Grab a dynamic link (pdf) on a particular website address. The website address does not change, but the link to the pdf changes slightly every day 2) Rename the pdf with a particular filename that includes a date stamp (i.e. [login to view URL]) 3) Save the renamed file to a local network folder address "\\server\assets\blah\" The script will need to be run on a windows machine or server once/day automatically via task scheduler. Additionally, I need the ability to add/edit/delete the locations of the pdf files.

I have already done a similar software few weeks back. I will provide you an executable . When you run it for the first time , it will ask the website address where the pdf resides (name changes are not an issue as long as it returns the pdf file). There will be a button titled as "Automate the process". When you click on it, it will create a scheduled task in windows scheduled task that runs every day or at specified time intervals. UI will have following controls 1-textbox for server address. 2-textbox for specifying the network location path. 3-Time interval textbox after which the process runs again 4-Automate the process button to create entry in scheduled tasks

Hello, Full disclosure: I'm not a 100% sure that I know how to do this but I am confident that I should be able to figure it out. I have experience in Visual Basic and several other languages so it will likely just be an exercise of hashing it out
