ABAP Web dynpro download .txt file.

[dave99]

Hi experts,

I have a web dynpro application which is displaying some ddic tables data into the page. My customer's request to make a button and download the internal table content into a .txt file and place it into a network disk. (not into the downloads folder)
I've successfuly transformed the internal table data into a txt file. I am using the cl_wd_runtime_services=>attach_file_to_response method but in my case that solution is not acceptable, because every time the file is downloaded into the downloads folder. I want to download it into a predefined route like: W:\my\folder\to\download.

Do you have any thoughts on this?

Isn't it the same as for any file downloaded from internet, to be proposed to be downloaded to the default download folder?

I am not sure, maybe. But my request is to overwrite the default download folder to a custom one, but on downloading no proposal popup is coming up allowing the user to choose the folder...

In that case, your question is different, not an SAP question. For Edge: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-edge/change-the-downloads-folder-location-in-microsoft....
