Thanks for the tip. I got admin privileges by creating an admin account, now I can see the full path. So that it basically means, we can't download larger files directly through the browser window but only from tracing the path and copying the file to some other place.  Isn't it :)

If you can't get admin right maybe your admin will set the following option in your universe.ini on True:

#expose_dataset_path = False

Hi Nilaksha,

unfortunately you only see the path if you are an admin. Can you get admin right? Otherwise, maybe downloading via the API would an alternative.
