Retrieve Image in PDF from an API

[mzlee]

Hello, I want to retrieve an invoice from an API in PDF and store it on a folder. This is the first time I have used an API and I am not sure how do l need to configure the download tool. When I go to the temporary folder I only get a notepad with the URL <Image xmlns= I think I am really close to completing..

I tried changing the download to from Temporary file to Filename from a Field "DownloadTempFile" but the download tool is giving me an error. Is there another tool that I need to use after the download tool?

if you are seeing that - you may be hitting the wrong api endpoint. Depending upon the api you are using - you may go to api 1 -> get pdf address - download pdf from api 2 (this is fairly common with say ERP systems). You will need to find a) the blob/binary address. 2) you will need to set your content type as application/pdf (assuming these are pdf and not octet/mime whatever). you can then specify a filename or save to temp.
