I'm using the HTTPCaller to download PDF documents to a set destination folder. The files get saved with the following name structure: "http_download_1582786318570_11140". This is not the same name I get when downloading the documents manually in a browser. I need the documents to be saved with the same name I get when doing it manually. Example: "Askholmen_SE0220343". Is it possible?

(URL to PDF-documents are found under the heading "Bevarandeplaner kommunvis")

HTTPCaller:

Using the method @david_r suggested, I have attached an example workspace that will get the filename from the Content-Disposition and write out the pdf file using the filename.

Nice! 🙂 Just make sure to remove the _response_body attribute containing the PDF if you need to do any further processing after the AttributeFileWriter.

You can also use the ListSearcher as an alternative to the ListExploder + Tester:

That is probably the better way to go about it using the list searcher.
