I'm trying to download the content of a file using:

https://css.na-1-dev.api.opentext.com/v2/content/42d51007-f845-4e30-883f-6e0a01733d17/download

Even in the tester on the developerwebsite I get an error:

Server response

Code

Details

Failed to fetch.
Possible Reasons:

CORS
Network Failure
URL scheme must be "http" or "https" for CORS request.

Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong? I thougth this was working in the past?

Hello @Jeroen Jansen ,

From the CSS ID above, it seems you are trying to fetch an id that does not exist. In css v2, the blob id is a base64 encoded string. The css v2 URL for download would look similar to this:

https://css.na-1-dev.api.opentext.com/v2/content/cj0xNDQ4ZDA4YS1kYjk2LTQ1MmYtYmUzMC1lMTJhMWM0ZDlmNTMmaT1iN2ViZTVmMy1jZTc1LTQ0YjktOTExOC0wYWI1OGZhNmJmZjUmbz0zNzM0NmFmMS1mMjE5LTRmNjgtOWIwNC01YzM1YjRmNmMxMGQ=/download

Where are you getting the ID above from? I mean the id: 42d51007-f845-4e30-883f-6e0a01733d17

@Jeroen Jansen, I have tested CSS V2 and it seems to work. Can you please verify with the Postman collection from the Contract Approval App (https://github.com/opentext/demo-contract-approval-app/tree/master/postman). Under the Content Storage Service (CSS) section, you will find a REST API request to upload a file which will return a download link. This download link you can then use (make sure to use the bearer token) in a GET request and it should return/download the previously uploaded document.

Hi, Yes that was the problem. I used the wrong Blob_id. It works fine now, Thanks.
