Download File clicks a recorded element and waits for the browser download. It writes only inside the folder selected in the inspector.

​
Configuration

  • Locator identifies the real download control.
  • Destination folder is selected through the operating-system picker.
  • Filename is optional and can be mapped.
  • Collision behaviour is rename, overwrite, or fail.
  • Maximum size is 1–2048 MB; the default is 100 MB.
  • Timeout defaults to 60000 ms.
The output includes the trusted downloaded path and byte count. Map the path directly into Parse CSV, Parse JSON, Parse Text, Move File, or another compatible trusted path field.

Managed browser downloads

Cloud-managed downloads are size checked and malware scanned before they reach the durable artifact sink. An unavailable scanner is not treated as a clean result. The temporary browser filesystem is destroyed with the workload.

​
Troubleshooting

Use Wait For download_begins when a separate click initiates a delayed download. If the node times out, inspect the locator attempts, unexpected navigation, failed network requests, and the page screenshot rather than increasing the timeout first.
