Hello,
I am trying to download a file (Excel) from a website and want to save it to the KV Store. The problem is that on clicking the download button, I cannot see where the file was downloaded.
How can I achieve this?
Thank you!

Hi , depending if you use playwright or puppeteer I would recommend you to checkout these two articles explaining what you might be trying to achieve
https://playwright.dev/docs/downloads

Hello ,
I already had that piece of code with
prefs
and
download.default_directory
but that still does not save the file to the directory I mentioned.
Also, I checked the path via
os.listdir()
but it does not list the downloaded file. Can you please help me with this?

Could it be because of the Docker volume?
