Downloading Folders as Zip Files c#

Question

I created a code that downloads OneDrive folders as zip folders. When the file's downloaded, I checked it was there but when I opened it, it was a displaying an error message saying, the compressed(zip) folder is invalid. Is the below code correct for downloading folders as zip files?

string myWebUrlFile = "https://1drv.ms/u/s!Ag_<PII partly redacted>J4YfbyjUd?e=wER6Se";
// Local path where the file will be saved
string myLocalFilePath = "C:/Users/xxxxx/Pictures/Download.zip";
using (var client = new WebClient())
{
client.DownloadFile(myWebUrlFile, myLocalFilePath);
}

Hi HemanthB-9452,
The problem is your file path.
I suggest you find the file path by following steps:
Go to One Drive on the web and right-click on the file that we want and select Embed. Τhen on the right we see the info window to integrate our file into a page. Inside the iframe is the source of the file. Then we have to replace the word embed with the word download and that's it.

 string myWebUrlFile = "https://onedrive.live.com/download?cid=63959A1D954EE80F&resid=63959A1D954EE80F%2110492&authkey=ABQoKVOGlCY54Gk&em=2";  

Best Regards,
Daniel Zhang
