Hello ! This is my first UiPath project,i am a beginner. I have made an automation that converts youtube links to mp3s through an online converter. However,sometimes the download fails and I need to click on the bottom arrow and resume the download. How can I make the sequence see that the download did not complete and resume it ? I am using Google Chrome. Thanks :slight_smile:

I should have also stated that the files get their names from the online converter,there is no point in the automation proccess where they get named.

Hi @Nostradamon1,

Can you try to use the Retry Scope activity to solve your problem?

You can retry if it fails during the download process.

Retry Scope (uipath.com)

HI,thanks for the answer. This seems to be a nice solution,but I didn’t really manage to understand how the retry scope works or how I can use it.

Hi,

You can simple check in the download worked correcly, if not have 2 options, make a validation that check the state (you can use an element exist, image exist, etc) the other is to add a try catch activity, inside try you should drag your normal download secuence, if its fails, then in the catch you will retry you download.

Regards!
