&lt;p&gt;Can you please suggest any other approach?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: RPA.

&lt;p&gt;Set download directory to one particular folder everytime. Use list the contents of folder from the pallete and provide the path of the folder, you will get all the contents of the folder. In that way you can find the name of the file.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
