Using OneDrive Desktop to call an script in another computer

Let me just share an idea:

  • Two (or more) computers have OneDrive Desktop installed
  • They point to the same OneDrive account:
    • both computers would be synchronized when one of them changes its local OneDrive folder
  • Lets see the first computer as 'server':
    • It is running an AutoIt script ('Main.au3') that is monitoring changes in a text file in its local shared folder
  • The client computer changes a text file with the same name in its relative local shared folder
    • The text line is like a command: with a name of script and parameters
  • The 'Server' computer it is synchronized:
    • Main.au3 detects changes in the local text file
    • Reads the line and execute another script
    • For example: generates a report from a query to a database and save a file in another shared folder

FOR SURE, is not an advance solution, just an idea

Thanks in advance for your comments

See here an example of the Main.au3:
