Downloading PDFs in bulk

Hi

 

I am a newbie to RM.

I have gotten RM to harvest a list of links to PDFs I need to examine for qualitative analysis. I have been unable to get RM to actually download the PDFs. My work around has been to copy the list of links to the PDFs to another program that will download each pdf. Is there a way to get RM to do this instead?

 

Kind regards

 

Eddy

    The "open file" operator allows one to download files from a url.

    You can combine that with a loop examples and write file to download files.

     Please see the attached example, it uses macros and loops, so may be confusing at first. 

    But let us know if the attached process helps.
