Solution

If you want to read a webpage with a windows agent and interpret the content of this site you could automate this with Automic and a vbs script. The script is called web.vbs.

This is the content of web.vbs:

 

Dim oXMLHTTP

Dim oStream

Set oXMLHTTP = CreateObject("MSXML2.XMLHTTP.3.0")

oXMLHTTP.Open "GET", WScript.Arguments.Item(0), False

oXMLHTTP.Send

If oXMLHTTP.Status = 200 Then

wscript.echo oXMLHTTP.responseText

End If

 

Now create an Automic job and type the following line into the process tab:

cscript c:\web.vbs http://website.com
