URL download question

[aehrenwo]

I have the following URL that I have pulled directly from an email in Outlook using a separate connection through MS Access. I am trying to populate it in the Download Tool and it is coming back with no data. 

http://www.test.com/CW2/Reporting/Transfer/StreamByEmail?reportId=gcT%2fIYD4wLjWSHaGNYd9Yw%3d%3d

I have replaced the actual domain name with a fake one as this is a proprietary report.  

if I copy and paste the URL directly into the browser it process for a second then prompts to "download" a specific csv file. Is this not working because the URL isn't directly to text type input but rather is redirecting somehow to a file? 

Just curious if there are any options. 

Regards,

Adam
