It keeps loading after download

Help me!
1

I use the following code to download my result as json file:

let filename = projectId + ".json";
res.set({
"Access-Control-Expose-Headers": "Content-Disposition",
"Content-Disposition": `attachment; filename="${filename}"`,
"Content-Type": "application/json",});
return res.send(result);

After the download is done, the status banner keeps loading and does not go to completion. Can you please help me thank you

I suppose that you configured a smart action to be executed on multiple entries, and in the code of this smart action, you returned a json file as attachment?

Can you please also share with us the declaration of your smart action?

Thanks for the details. Can you please open the network tab of your developer tools before launching the Smart Action?

Then, identify the request that corresponds to your smart action, and copy/paste all details about the request and the response. I would like to check if the smart action is correctly configure and returning the expected response (that would indicate a problem in the frontend) or if the response is incorrect.

I created a smart action on a test project and could reproduce your issue.

I’m creating a bug ticket on our side and let you know when it’ll be fixed.
