I am running wget through cronjob for executing some script in scheduled manner. Everytime the output is downloaded and saved as new file. I want to append the output to same file. How can I do that?
I am talking about the downloaded content from the URL but not the log of the execution.

In order to download a file using Wget, type wget followed by the URL of the file that you wish to download. Wget will download the file in the given URL and save it in the current directory.
Save with different file name By default, downloaded file will be saved with the last name mentioned in the URL. To save file with a different name option O can be used. Syntax: wget -O <fileName><URL>
Wget is the non-interactive network downloader which is used to download files from the server even when the user has not logged on to the system and it can work in the background without hindering the current process.
You can do it using the following command:
wget <URL> -O ->> <FILE_NAME>
