Hi,

I have an issue with downloading an Excel file from the Orchestrator Storage Bucket. I receive the following error message (same as the title): Download Storage File: Operation returned an invalid status code ‘BadRequest’.
I tried the following properties for the download storage file activity:

I am Not sure if I inserted the right paths. I inserted some white bars to overlay some project information. Can anyone give me an example how to download an Excel file from the Storage Bucket?

Quick Update: Furthermore I receive an access denied error message for the destination path, where I want to store the File. Could this be an VM related issue, or do I need to change some settings?

Best regards,
Anna

@anna.z , @nico.tomsich – You might want to put the file name in the destination path for this to work. For example helloworld is the file that you want to download from storage . Then the destination path should be c:\temp\helloworld.txt , if you do not provide the file name it will continue to give the error i.e. access denied

Valid → c:\temp\helloworld.txt
Invalid → c:\temp\ → throws error Download Storage File: Access to the path is denied
