Wait For Download

[ext-o]

Question about Wait For Download activity. I need to save a pdf invoice file that is opened to a browser window. Earlier with another automation, when I used this activity, I managed to do it. Before there has not been that ‘Save’ window (2nd picture). That window brings some new problems, so I would like to get this working as earlier (not having that window at all)… What could be causing that 2nd window to popup…?

I need to save a pdf invoice file that is opened to a browser window.

in such scenarios, we would also check if the URL can be used for the download e.g. with the

This was already set as in your example. Problem is anyhow solved… I noticed that ‘Save’ window can purely be closed (and tab as well) without any effect on saving the file - file is saved even without clicking that Save. Thank you for all answers, problem is now solved!
