Content Server REST API - Download File

MangeshThorat

I want to download a version of a document from Livelink/Content Server using REST API. It is working via postman. However using HTML/JavaScript there is an error. Kindly help.

GET method for a node details is working but get version is not.

GET node details - http://localhost/otcs/cs.exe/api/v1/nodes/30815 - Works!

GET version of a node - http://localhost/otcs/cs.exe/api/v1/nodes/30815/versions/1/content - Doesn't work (Please find attached screenshot.)

Try substituting the otcsticket with otdsticket.
For that get the otdssso token from otds . Many times that will not face cors difficulties

Hi @MangeshThorat,

I am facing the same issue? Is it resolve for you?

Where this file will be download by default? can we customize the file download location?

please advise.

The problem is your browser is disallowing cross origin scripting, I.e. CORS. you would need to call the API from a JS library hosted on the same web server somewhat the URL is local, I,e, same origin. There may be a way to disable the check but I would recommend reading up on CORS first to make sure you aren't introducing a security hole.
