Wat er verandert
- Eliminates a repetitive download-and-upload task
- Reduced risk of missing files
- Data arrives in central storage in the same way every day
How it works.
What it does per run
- Logs in to Youforce, with a limit on retry attempts
- Constructs the expected filename based on the current date
- Filters the file list and selects the correct export
- Downloads the ZIP file
- Unzips it
- Uploads the files to blob storage
Rules
The filename is constructed from the current date, and the login is retried up to three times. The same input always leads to the same outcome, and every run leaves a log that can be audited.
