Dealing with a 302 response in Power Automate

[thomas1992UK]

Hi,

I want to download a file - when I enter the URL in the browser it downloads.

When I use the HTTP request in power automate is returns a 302 error. I have tried the run after failed option but this returns a another http link as opposed to the body content.

I have attached the flow and a screenshot from power automate.

If I click deal with the 302 redirect response in postman it downloads the file correctly, wondering how to do this in power automate.

hi @thomas1992UK  your link is public? Becouse 302 error is when you have headers to redirect the link, so you need to disable redirect headers from your website.

It’s an api call with oauth2

@thomas1992UK  mm ok, so in body you need to add the parameter you need to correctly log in. Parameters like this.

client_id=exampleApiKey&client_secret=exampleSecret&username=someUsername&password=WithSomePassword

Infact sorry, it is a public api

@thomas1992UK  another thing you can do is run after error because as I told you the error is an redirect error so maeby you need someting in you header html page.

Thanks, now I have this bit working.

When I get the body from the HTTP request it returns it like the image (binary?), how do I transform this to a viewable image?

Thanks,

Tom
