Hi,

Using power automate desktop, I am trying to export or download files from web application. However, I not able to navigate it in desired location/folder from my local machine, when 'Save As' window gets opened. Similarly, when I tried to access those files during upload from another portal, I am not able to navigate to desired saved location from default location. Can you suggest me actions or trick to navigation through automated actions ?

Thanks in Advance

YOU DON'T HAVE TO

If you write the full path (and filename) to where you want to where you want to save, the file will get saved there, regardless of which folder is shown in the window.

Actually, I managed to select folder for first time, manually. Then rest of all the time, Open dialog opens same folder for all save.
