if the url is for a pdf file and if it has the full path or if using web page if you just paste the url and then the file downloads or appears then you can use http request with url as the input and response as attachment can be given a filepath and it would be saved in the same path

I am retriving web URLS from sharepoint list, and using download file from URL activity and passing the rertrived URL in it. After converting that downloaded file into pdf using create pdf from download file activity, but it is throwing an error as given in the below image.

Sometimes the file gets saved in storage bucket but that file does not open.

The image shows an error message on a software interface related to a failed PDF creation task, indicating an unsupported or invalid MIME type. (Captioned by AI)

@sarvesh.b

if you see the activity it supports from other office formats to pdf

also sharepoint url download is not a public endpoint you should be using download file activity under office365 to get the file using the url

or if you are trying to print the sharepoint list itself as pdf then again as it is not public url you wont be able to get the same response

I am not using sharepoint links. I have prepared a sharepoint list in which a column contains various web URLs which I need to convert into pdfs.

Thanks!!

@sarvesh.b

can you open those web urls in incognito mode?

do they redirect to public websites?

@Anil_G

No I cant, Opens in normal web pages. Is there any options through which we can directly convert it into pdfs without opening that urls in browser?

Thanks

@sarvesh.b

ideally if you cannot open as normal web page then it should be a sharepoint related url which cannot be converted like that…its an authenticated page…

cheers
