Hi @sungbae.cho

Would accessing your mail body this way achieve your goal?

Thank you for your reply.

Can you give me more information?

Two ways to access the content of your email is:

  • mailMessageVar.Body → if the body is simple text
  • mailMessageVar.Headers(“bodyHTML”) → if the body is HTML

You should see if either prints out anything useful to the output panel, and then do some simple string manipulation (such as Regex) to extract what you need.

Hello Reo,
In this video, download files via an HTTP request.

I attached the VB.NET code:

Blockquote
Dim httpRequest As HttpWebRequest = DirectCast(WebRequest.Create(“https://url.pdf”), HttpWebRequest)
httpRequest.Method = WebRequestMethods.Http.Get
Dim httpResponse As HttpWebResponse = DirectCast(httpRequest.GetResponse(), HttpWebResponse)
Dim httpResponseStream As Stream = httpResponse.GetResponseStream()
Dim doc As Byte()
Dim ms As MemoryStream = New MemoryStream()
httpResponseStream.CopyTo(ms)
doc = ms.ToArray()
File.WriteAllBytes(“C:\yourfile.pdf”, doc)

Thanks,
