Export XML and Save To Local Directory

rickyl76

Hi, i am running BC16 on prem on a local docker and want to be able to export an xmlport file to my local machine. My code is as follows below, but rather than saving it automatically to a specified folder it is saving to my downloads. OutputFileDirectory is set to 'c:\TestExport\' and OutputFileName is set to TestFile.csv. Is what i am trying to do possible?

TempBlob.CreateOutStream(OutStr, TextEncoding::UTF8);
Xmlport.Export(50000, OutStr);
TempBlob.CreateInStream(Instr);
DownloadFromStream(Instr, '', OutputFileDirectory, '', OutputFileName)

Hello @rickyl76,

If you are using the web client the parameters in DownloadFromStream doesn't work.

Take a look to this link:

Thank you for your reply. So is there an alternative way to achieve this or is this just a limitation?
