Hello @vd,

Welcome to Atlassian Community!

For every Job that Bamboo runs, their Tasks will be executed initially on the bamboo.build.working.directory root location. That location is declared as an environment variable and can be accessed by your download code. To access that variable through a bash/shell script, please use the ${bamboo_build_working_directory} format.

You can also run "pwd" command to capture the current location before downloading the PDF files.

Sincerely,
