Getting data from a .CSV that is constantly overwritten

I am currently using the function "readmatrix('')" to obtain data from a .CSV file. This .CSV file will be overwritten periodically and I would like to to automatically read this new data from the overwritten .CSV file when the new file is obtained. My questions is, should I run a while loop and obtain the new data as it comes or is there a function that would automatically run my code every 2 minutes or so such that the readmatrix function reads the newly overwritten file every time? I will be saving the data every time in a cell array. Thank you in advance!

Would this happen to be on Windows? If so then see https://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/answers/370476-file-watcher-for-continuous-running-program#answer_294593 about filesystem watcher
