# Data Catalogger

This script will produce a summary excel spreadsheet for your file metadata. It is capable of collating data from your local files or your Azure File Share.

Metadata includes file path, size, type, created date and modified date. It will also identify current, new and deleted files since the last run.

Scheduling the script to run daily will keep an up to date summary of all your files. Use the "run_catalogger.bat" file as a template.
