So i wanted to run a script with 2 arguments -url & -authentication. tested it manually in local cmd
C:\Download\script.exe -url=”argument” -authentication=”argument” and it works, a file is downloaded through the script. so i just use the application: open program/file and put (-url=”argument” -authentication=”argument”) in the parameters, the bot suceed but there is no file downloaded.

There are several packages for executing scripts. Maybe you find the right one for you, so that you don’t have to use open program/file.

Some of our bots execute complex file searches and they run them directly in cmd. That works fine. Your bot could also use cmd.
