Hi Soumya This error can occur if you have not specified the name of the file, you want to download, in the Destination Path dataitem, e.g: ""Source URL"": https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/1/16/Parallax-scroll-example.gif ""Destination Path"": C:\Users\mustafaulasyigit\Documents\Parallax-scroll-example.gif. That should solve the issue. It is odd that you have to specify the file name in the destination path, but apparently necessary. Good luck. BR, Mustafa

Hi,

Can we use it to download a file from SharePoint? I tried using the code but it results in forbidden error -403. I am manually able to do the operation but I failed using this utility. Any help would be appreciated

Thanks,
Ankita

@anmaheswa,

If the file URL you're using is not what's know as a Pre-Authenticated File URL, then you can't use the Download File action on the Utility - File Management VBO because it's a simple file download. It doesn't include any support for providing credentials - which it sounds like you need with the URL you have.

Cheers,
