yes only one

the directory structure looks something like

/home/myfiles/day_of_year/255/data/JPF_374362/desired_file.txt

/home/myfiles/day_of_year/256/data/EJF_264827/desired_file.txt

/home/myfiles/day_of_year/257/data/FFE_387392/desired_file.txt

where after the data directory there is a day specific ID (three letters, underscore, and then a bunch of numbers, all are unpredictable for each day) and within there is the file named desired_file.txt
