Automatically Download Excel File from website

Hi all,

 

How would I go about automatically downloading the excel file in the following website, then select a specific tab within it? I have created a view on a static file and would like to be able to update this monthly as new government data comes in.

Cheers!

It would depend on the authentication method required by the bank though.

 

Most I know of need 2 factor authentication and require some form of confirmation from a phone or a pin/card device.

 

However if you were able to log in via and API and there was a way to store the credentials then it is likely possible

If we just have user id and password  not 2 factor authentication then is it possible?

Without knowing the website it's impossible to say, but yes, you can log into sites and pass through authentication to websites in Alteryx.

 

Which bank is it and what is the site?
