Morning,

 

I'm having an issue downloading a URL from a website with text input tool. The tool will not recognize the URL. It may be a simple obvious answer, my brain is already fried and I need assistance. The URL and screen shot is below.

 

Thanks in advance

Thanks Marquee that's it! I'm not sure why I thought Alteryx with automatically register that as a URL. The answer is like finding your car keys in your pocket, after searching for an hour. Lol
