The "Http FileResponse" activity has a "Content" property which has the description "The file content to serve. Supports various types, such as byte array, stream, string, Uri, Downloadable and a (mixed) array of the aforementioned types ." Except that if I put a simple text, so just a "string", no file will be downloaded. The activity does not support string as indicated in the description of "Content"
Based on the context provided, the HTTP File Response activity in Elsa Workflows is designed to serve files as part of an HTTP response. The Content property of this activity supports various types, including byte arrays, streams, Downloadable objects, and arrays of any combination of these types. However, it seems there might be a misunderstanding regarding the support for strings as file content.
If you are trying to serve a simple text string as a file download, you should ensure that the string is converted into a format that the HTTP File Response activity can handle as a file, such as a byte array or a stream. Simply providing a string may not trigger a file download because the activity expects file content, not just any string.
To serve a text string as a file, you could convert the string to a byte array and then set the ContentType property to text/plain or another appropriate MIME type, and provide a Filename for the download.
Here's an example of how you might configure the HTTP File Response activity to serve a text string as a downloadable file:
In this example, you would need to convert "Your text string here" into a byte array or a stream before setting it as the Content. The ContentType is set to text/plain to indicate that it is a text file, and the Filename is set to example.txt, which is the name the file will be downloaded as.
If you are still experiencing issues with the HTTP File Response activity not triggering a file download when using a string, please provide more details about how you are configuring the activity, and I can assist you further.
