Downloading from Web popup use "Save As"

Help
1

Hi
I am new to UIPath and need to solve this problem. I login to a web app and then I click on export to excel. Once the file is read to download a popup comes up with 3 option Open, Save, Close. On the save there is a dropdown and I need to use it to pick “Save As” so that I can specify the name and location for the file. How can this be accomplished.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

There are two easy ways to do this.

  1. Use Select Item activity and click on “Save As”
  2. Click on dropdown using a normal click activity, then use hotkeys to go down and press enter.

Hi @glenn.robinson,

Hi I have done this before.

Use ‘On element appear’ with ‘Repeat forever property’ set to ‘False’ and checkbox ‘Wait active’ and ‘Wait visible’ checked.

Once that window element appears,click on that save> arrow button and wait for the options to load and select it again by leveraging the F2 functionality of UiPath.

Have redundancies/repeated checks for elements to exist

Hope this helps, if not sen me the link of what you are trying too download will upload a test xaml.
