Hi ,

 

Any one please help me to achieve this. I am uploading files using platform App user (through JWT Oauth2), I am able to upload and download the file. But here I have scenario like, if the file is uploaded as 'TestFile.jpg' then I want to download it as 'sample.jpg'. I have tried to add content-disposition header for my Download method, but file is getting downloded with actual file name Could you please help me for this.

 

Below is the code that I am trying,

 

HttpRequest req = NEW HTTPRequest ();
req.setMethod ('GET');
req.setEndpoint ('https://api.box.com/2.0/files/***number removed for privacy***855/content');
req.setHeader ('Authorization', 'Bearer '+accessToken);
req.setHeader ('content-disposition', 'attachment; filename="test.png"');

HTTP http = NEW HTTP ();
HTTPResponse res = http.send (req);

String downloadURL = '';
downloadURL = res.getHeader('Location');

 

 

Thanks,
Srikanth

    Content-Disposition is a header that is typically sent from servers to clients. See https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6266#section-3 . It is not something that the API accepts from the client request.

     

    If your client wants to use a different name, it is under no obligation to use the true filename / the filename in the response Content-Disposition header. It can do whatever it pleases with the raw file content.

    Hi,

    Thank you for your reply.

    Could you please let me know the procedure to change the file name while downloading. If you have any sample example that will be more helpful to me.


    Thanks,
    Srikanth

    I'm not certain what language you're using (Java?), but from the code sample you provided, I can see that you are manually calling the API, and you aren't using an SDK to download the file.

     

    Thus, you can download the file to a different location using whatever utilities are built into your language. That is entirely outside of the domain of Box.

     

    If you are using Java, here are some suggestions: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/921262/how-to-download-and-save-a-file-from-internet-using-java . When specifying the target location on your file system, choose whatever name and location that you wish.
