$csv = Import-Csv -Path "c:\temp\source.csv" foreach($entry in $csv) { $url = ("http:" + ((Invoke-WebRequest –Uri ‘https://www.website.com/webpage.php’ + $_.'vendor part number').Links |` Where-Object {$_.href -like “*300*”} |` Where-Object {$_.innerHTML -eq “Enlarge"}).href) }
Hi.
With your help, you can end my days frustration. The script above goes to a webpage, list the .links parts and strips out a particular href link based on the field "$_."Vandor Part Number" but only when I manually type in the actaul vendor part number. With this example above, the error is to say that a '+' cannot exist alongside 'invoke-webrequest'
The Where-Object lines narrow out the one line I want form heach web page which then arrives in the form:
http://webiste.com/images/image.jpg
I would like to download this jpg for each part number gleened form each row of the csv file.
I upgraded to Powershell 3.0 today to take advantage of the new WebClinet as such:
$clnt = new-object System.Net.WebClient $file = "c:\temp\images\" + $_."vendor part number" $clnt.DownloadFile($url,$file)
The hope is to have a script that reads each row of the CSV, assembles the URL value correctly to retrieve the jpg URL then save that JPG file in a defined location by the name of the variable form teh csv file.
The first problem I cannot seem to solve is the $url is not formed, I get the url without the variable added to the end. Obviously, that fails, so everythign else does, however, when I enter the url manually, it works, just once. I guess this means I have a bad loop and can't parse right.
Any help or pointers are appreciated.
Many thanks
