Bing Ads API PollGenerateReport Download URL says "ResourceNotFound"

Kind of stuck with this. I was able to request for a report using "SubmitGenerateReport" API for GeographicalPerformanceReportRequest and it responded with a report ID. Attached the response I got from the API call using Postman.

I just had a same response, it may help someone in the future.

When you get ReportDownloadUrl value, you need to replace &amp; with & first. Then use the URL to download the zip file.
