    Please elaborate your use case what you are trying to accomplish here? If possible, share full screenshot of your flow?

     

    Note: If you enabled power fx, Please disable it as syntax of power fx would be different from normal one

    sry keep marking my post as spam,

     

    i just ask here. 

    I put a "wait for file" to wait the file created before "unzip file". However, file created doesnt mean that the subfiles inside it are fully downloaded. So is there a better way to wait for the whole file fully downloaded (not "created") before unzipping it?

    btw, got your question..

     

    Automate the process of triggering the "Save As" window manually.

     

    Configure your preferred browser to prompt you to choose the download location each time.

    Navigate to the link or click whatever initiates the file download.

    Automate the "Save As" dialog by implementing a wait for the window to appear, followed by entering the desired filename, clicking the save button.

    Afterward, use the same filename value in the action that waits for the file to complete its download.
