I have been assigned a task of automating a manual activity which involves checking if a particular data file has been uploaded in a drive daily.The file is a .csv file added incrementally(once) every morning and named based on the date and time it has been uploaded. In case the file is not present in the drive folder there should be a trigger alert to the stakeholders in the form of email.

What are the automation tools I can use to automate this particular activity?

My current plan is to write a java code that checks the folder.Using Jenkins I will run it everyday and trigger email alert in case a particular file is not present. Is there any easier way to do this?
