What should be input in "Downloaded file"?

[Jonathan_Lam_EEL_IT]

HI, I’m a newbie on uiPath, in my case, I would like to use “Wait for download” activity to monitor/wait a file download & then copy the content into another Excel file.
What is supposed to input in dialogue “Downloaded file”?

@Jonathan_Lam_EEL_IT Maybe this post can help you in understanding more about the Activity :

How to download a zip file from url and close the tab without using delay activity?

Sure. See the attached workflow. WaitForDownloadTest.xaml (8.2 KB) Before running it, make sure that the download folder is the same as the default download folder for your Chrome browser. Also depending on how long it takes to download your file, you might need to change the Timeout property. Default is 300 seconds (5 minutes). This is the time the activity will wait before throwing an error. [image] Chrome setting: [image] [image]

Hello @Jonathan_Lam_EEL_IT

Welcome to the forum, Download File is the name give to the downloaded file which you will refer to afterwards. So the type of the output variable should be System.IO.FileInfo not a string i.e Downloaded_CSV and type of this variable should be System.IO.FileInfo
