I am trying to use web activity in Azure Data Factory for calling API. For that, I drag web activity from the activities list to the Azure Data Factory pipeline.

And I can able to call my API request and I got output from the Azure from the Web activity. And everything works fine till now.

The problem is that I need to save my web activity output (which is in JSON format) to a file (CSV, text).
Please help me how can I save my web activity output to a file?

    Hi @Rohith Babu Ginjupalli

    Can't you use a copy activity with a REST API as your source and some file store as your sink as shown here

    Hello @Rohith Babu Ginjupalli ,

    Thanks for the ask and using the Microsoft Q&A platform .
    Just double clicking on what @Pedro Fiadeiro said . You can use the COPY activity and as SOURCE take the API
    and SINK use the container . The below animation should help .
