GET pictures from a url and then rename the picture
Here is a sample which will help you.
I am assuming that your Excel file will look like this. Please amend the code as applicable.
Option Explicit
Private Declare Function URLDownloadToFile Lib "urlmon" _
Alias "URLDownloadToFileA" (ByVal pCaller As Long, _
ByVal szURL As String, ByVal szFileName As String, _
ByVal dwReserved As Long, ByVal lpfnCB As Long) As Long
Dim Ret As Long
'~~> This is where the images will be saved. Change as applicable
Const FolderName As String = "C:\Temp\"
Sub Sample()
Dim ws As Worksheet
Dim LastRow As Long, i As Long
Dim strPath As String
'~~> Name of the sheet which has the list
Set ws = Sheets("Sheet1")
LastRow = ws.Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
For i = 2 To LastRow '<~~ 2 because row 1 has headers
strPath = FolderName & ws.Range("A" & i).Value & ".jpg"
Ret = URLDownloadToFile(0, ws.Range("B" & i).Value, strPath, 0, 0)
If Ret = 0 Then
ws.Range("C" & i).Value = "File successfully downloaded"
Else
ws.Range("C" & i).Value = "Unable to download the file"
End If
Next i
End Sub
For those who don't want to deal with VBA or any other programming language there is a desktop web app that makes it super simple.
Just drop in the excel file, it will download all the images (or files) in an excel file to the folder you select, and if there are names on the B column it will also rename the file.
