    Dear colleagues,

    Can anyone tell me how we can extract a zip file after downloaded?

    Thank you in advance.

    Hi,

    There are a few ways this be achieved.
    1.) Using a command line action
    2.) Using desktop automation - unpack the archive on a desktop and leave the files somewhere accessible to the main robot workflow (or better look at the file sharing capabilities introduced in RPA 10.6)
    3.) Probably the cleanest way is to use a REST call into something like webzip (requires tomcat)

    Kofax has recently started publishing content on the GitHub repository https://github.com/KofaxRPA and one of the examples here includes the webzip webservice that can be added to Tomcat and then called from your robot.
    Check out https://github.com/KofaxRPA/RPA_Zip where you can download the webzip war together with some sample robots that make the call.

    Hope this helps!
