To download files from the internet, we will be using the action “Download from web”. This is a convenient alternative way to the usual way of downloading using a mouse click of the UI element.
To indicate the URL, go to your web browser with the web page open. Right click the download button/link and select “copy link address” from the dropdown menu of the file you wish to download.
To download the file from Microsoft Power Automate Desktop, paste the URL of the file you want to download into the URL field, setting the “Method” as “GET’, choose “Save to disk” for the save response, and adding the full path to the destination folder.
Run the flow, and when you check your folder, you’ll see that you have now downloaded the file from the internet!
