Description of the issue:When a loaded page is JSON, Brave on iOS doesn’t save the page correctly to a file if the page is behind a login wall. It seems that Brave is saving the file by repeating the request to the server, but without any cookies, which ends up saving the login page rather than the contents of the page. I would expect that saving contents that’s already been loaded in the browser would not repeat the request to the server at all but would use the downloaded/cached version to save to a file on the filesystem.
No, this works as intended with iOS Safari. I can use Safari just fine for this one thing, but I hate the fact I need to switch browsers only to do this, since I’ve been using Brave on multiple platforms for years now.
The thing is - when doing a “Share with…” from Safari - there is an option button to select “Web Archive” for the JSON file and then the browser saves the already downloaded file when I select “Save to Files” in the dialog.
Perhaps this is something that can be done for Brave on iOS too?
On iOS Brave it is not possible to save a web page consisting of JSON into a file if the page is behind a login wall.
It is suspected that this is due to Brave repeating the request to the original address w/out any session cookies
On iOS Safari, there is an additional option when saving a web page: if a “Web Archive” is selected as the type of the file to be saved - the cached (already downloaded) JSON is saved. If another type is chosen - save behaviour as for Brave is observed.
Is there any chance to include this option to Brave? Thanks!
Hello, is anyone encountering this issue too? Is this the correct forum to post such bugs? Or is there another place where this could be submitted as a feature request? Thanks.
