Hi all,
I am having a word document uploaded to the temporary url. i want to download the document from the url to my local folder(folder creation using x++).
i am using FileUploadTemporaryStorageResult result = File::SendFileToTempStore_GetResult to generate the url.
if i use browser.navigate in my job. it's downloading automatically in "Downloads" folder in system . i want to create my own folder and then save/download the document there
Any suggestions plss
Hi Test Bot,
Have you tried file::sendFileToUser(stream,filePathAndName).
Hi Test_Bot,
D365 can't see or create any folders on your workstation, just like any other websites (luckily) can't. The system can just ask the browser to open a download dialog, and from there on it's up to the browser and the user to choose a location that they want.
You can set up the default download folder in your browser's settings.
Hi Wil Wu,
In that method parameters, its given as only _filename. how can store/addmy local folder path. any example code or reference
public static void SendFileToUser(System.IO.Stream stream, str fileName, ClassName fileUploadStrategyClassName = classstr(FileUploadTemporaryStorageStrategy))
{
}
Hi partner,
I don't have an environment to test for you right now, please check this blog, you can try pass the full path in the second parameter.

I hav tried. but didn't got succceeded. can u provide any other suggestions.
As Nikolaos explained, what you're trying to do isn't possible. The web server doesn't have access to files on client machines.
As a workaround, you could make your local folder to FTP and drop the file from D365 using below code.
System.Byte[] bytes; System.Text.Encoding getUTF8; getUTF8 = System.Text.Encoding::get_UTF8(); System.Object request,response,credential; System.Net.FtpWebRequest ftpRequest; System.IO.Stream requestStream; System.IO.StreamReader streamReader = new System.IO.StreamReader(stream); bytes = getUTF8.GetBytes(streamReader.ReadToEnd()); request = System.Net.WebRequest::Create(new System.Uri("FTPURL")); ftpRequest = request; //Type casting object to ftpwebrequest object credential = new System.Net.NetworkCredential("UserName", "Password"); ftpRequest.set_Credentials(credential); ftpRequest.set_ContentLength(bytes.get_Length()); ftpRequest.set_Method('STOR'); requestStream = ftpRequest.GetRequestStream(); requestStream.Write(bytes,0,bytes.get_Length()); requestStream.Close();
