Situation
How do I monitor a directory to know that a file was created?
Resolution
Use the Async_FilesChanged knowledge script to monitor a directory for newly created files.
The Async_FilesChanged knowledge script is used to monitor one or more files for changes as they occur. It monitors the current size, time stamp, and attributes for a file. This knowledge script can also be configured to raise an Event if the size, time stamp or attribute of the monitored file changes.
NOTE: The Async_FilesChanged knowledge script checks the file properties rather than the file type and can be used with virtually any file type.
