Questions about automation process

Hi everyone.

I know that this will be a very complex question, but I am not looking for a straight solution, just a recommendation about where to find the information I need.

I am working as a junior business analyst in a company.

We are trying to analize the data that comes out of an industrial printer.

The data can be accessed through a local address and it is stored as a txt file, one per each day.

Here lies my first question: Is it possible to set up an automatic procedure in which every day the new file is imported into my PowerBI model? At the moment I think this is not possible without human intervention, but every bit of knowledge is appreciated.

After analyzing this data (this part is clear for me) I would like to have an automatic way to publish the updated report to my online power BI page.

This, again, is something I have no idea where to start with.
