Downloading .zip file from website which contains a .txt file

[cdshep95]

Hello,

I'm trying to update my workflow to download a .txt file from a website. My current workflow is set up to input the text files after I download and extract them from the zip, but I wanted to see if there's a way to input directly from the website. Below is the link to the .zip download.

Thanks in Advance!

The closest I can think of is to download the zip and then point a dynamic input to the zip location to pull the file.

I had the download tool save the output to a blob and output the blob file as the zip. Then used the dynamic tool to open the file.

Im not sure if there is an easier way to convert from the zip to data without the step of saving the zip.

If you're familiar with Python, you could also do similarly and flexibly like in the attached workflow.
