how to access files in c:\user\username\downloads folder?

Hi,

You can use a bat file to get the enviroment variable %userprofile% and get the path using the system variable AAInstallationPath ($System:AAInstallationPath$)

echo %USERPROFILE%\Downloads > C:\Program Files\Automation Anywhere\Bot Agent\my_path.txt

Usually C:\Program Files\Automation Anywhere\Bot Agent is AAInstallationPath whose is accesible by the bot in order to read the path in the file.

Regards

Hi @Sonny Yuan​ ,

If only the Username is dynamic, then you can use the System: Get Environment Variable Action and retrieve the Username.

This username can then be placed in the filepath like so:

@Sonny Yuan​ - Alternative approach, If you don't want to create additional variable and don't want to add additional line then we can directly pass $SystemVariablesPackage:UserName$ in field. It returns you the same result.
