There is a webpage "test.com/data" and a file "2022_06_18_abdacadabra.xlsx" is posted on that webpage. There doeThe file name changes each day, like it was "2022_06_17_abdacadabra.xlsx." I want to be able to download this file using websave using the wildcard for the date part of the file name. How will it work?

Maybe something like this. Only works if the file is downloadable via that url. Instead of 'today' you can use any other date.
url = sprintf("https://www.test.com/data/%s_abdacadabra.xlsx",datetime('today',"Format","yyyy_MM_dd"))
websave("PathToFile",url)
