Downloading a report from URL

Posted on by Community Power Pla...

Hi,

I am trying to automate a report from a database that does not have any data connectors to Power BI.

The only available option to export data is to schedule a email with a download link to the report.

I created a flow to parse the email and save the hyperlink to download the file from the system.

When I copy and paste the link to my browser, the file download initiates instantly. When I use postman, the return is a html page and not the report.

Is there a way to simulate a browser to download the report using Flow?

Thanks in advanced!
