Just generated a CSV, stored the URL but opening this URL with an OPEN LINK does not create any visible action on a MAC Sonoma 14.5 - am I missing something?

You might need to add a wait condition for like 5 seconds before the open link step.

But you’re on Mac, which might lead to a new screen that shows the CSV’s value instead of downloading it. Is it the case?
