bash script to identify the files based on current date and file name pattern

Question

bash script to identify the files based on current date and file name pattern .

There are 10 files located in different directory which contains date pattern in it . I need to pick these files one by one and send to remote site .

I thought to list the file naming pattern, location in config file and pick from the script but without any luck . Someone help

sample file name patter and location .

/documents/accounts/abc_yyyy-mm-dd.txt

/documents/namelist/def_yyyy-mm-dd-txt

/documents/newcustomer/ghijkl_yyyy-mm-dd-txt

date=`date +%Y-%m-%d`;
config_file="/scripts/config/abc.cfg";
echo $config_file;
URL="http://localhost:9200/document-$date";

while read var value
do
    "$var"= curl -XPUT 'http://localhost:9200/documents-'$date'/document/ 
done < /path/to/abc.config

to pick these files daily and send it to remote site using curl everyday once all the files are available .

/home/leonardo4it/tst/abc:
total 0
-rw-rw-r-- 1 leonardo4it leonardo4it 0 Dec 28 14:04 abc_2016-12-28.txt
-rw-rw-r-- 1 leonardo4it leonardo4it 0 Dec 28 14:34 excluded.txt

/home/leonardo4it/tst/shhh:
total 0
-rw-rw-r-- 1 leonardo4it leonardo4it 0 Dec 28 14:06 hbcinema_2016-12-28.txt

/home/leonardo4it/tst/u111:
total 0
-rw-rw-r-- 1 leonardo4it leonardo4it 0 Dec 28 14:06 uu_2016-12-28.txt

[leonardo4it@box4it tst] $ export dat_day=(`date +%Y-%m-%d`)
[leonardo4it@box4it tst] $ echo $dat_day
2016-12-28
[leonardo4it@box4it tst] $ find /home/leonardo4it/tst/ -type f -name "*$dat_day.txt"
/home/leonardo4it/tst/abc/abc_2016-12-28.txt

#!/bin/bash
date=$(date +%Y-%m-%d)
find /documents/ -type f -name "*${date}.txt" | while read filename
do
       echo "filename : ${filename}"
       #  put your transfer logic here...
done
