This is the code I use to download,it pop ups a dialog and requires the user to save.How can I run it as a background job?

So the file should download and save without the pop up!

For security reasons it can't be done. You could use a network share or FTP.

can you give me an example,also keep in mind that the format is not always text,it can be xls...thanks

To download the file in FTP server, you can refer these demo programs - RSFTP0*. You would get lot of examples in the google to download in the application server.

Plenty of examples of both if you'll search. Like asked just 9 hours ago. https://answers.sap.com/questions/671763/move-zip-files-from-application-server-to-presenta.html The format of the file is irrelevant.
