I have a binary file in a Documents folder which needs to be periodically updated from a copy that's available either from a URL, or a network path (UNC). I can't find any workflow actions that seem to facilitate this. My best guess is that I may be able to accomplish this using the web request action, but I really don't know.
You'd think this would be a fairly common task: grab a file from [here], and add it to this document library (overwriting if necessary).
Thanks!
Perhaps you could do this with a Windows Task following these steps:
-Configure your library to allow incoming emails, so your library will be set with binaryfiles@yourcompany.com
-Set a Windows Task to send your binary file on an email to binaryfiles@yourcompany.com
Fernando,
Thank you very much! This should work. I'd forgotten about this capability, not being a full-time Sharepoint guy, but I can create a Powershell script to pull the file and send it as an email.
Thanks again.
Ryk
