I am attempting to write the output of a curl command to a file and it is not working when executing through my VBP step (Run Command step), but it works fine when I manually run it from command prompt window.

This is an example of what I'm trying to execute:

curl.exe -k -x <MyProxy> -H "Content-Type: application/json; charset=UTF-8" -X PUT --data-binary "{\"password\":\"<MyPassword>\"}" https://%HOST_URL%/api/authenticate > E:\Temp\%ENVIRONMENT%\token.txt

I also tried the "read program output from file" and that does not work either. Currently I have it set to standard output when running the above command.

I'm using VBP 8.6. Is this a bug? Can anyone assist?
Thanks
