Hey! I am trying to find a way to crawl links to shared documents in Google Drive and then download them.

These documents seem to elude the DEVONagent’s Document Scanner and right clicking on the links and adding them to Downloads doesn’t work either. The only way I have found is manually clicking Google Drive’s Download icon (upper right corner).

This is a sample link/document: [BOLETIN MARZO ABRIL 2021.pdf - Google Drive](https://drive.google.com/file/d/1TL4bYG_PExOv76AMgVOiGNq0A37jBQO5/view?usp=sharing)

Any ideas would be appreciated!

Thx!

The URL is basically a generic one without any file extension and therefore not accepted by the scanner.
