Downloading content using ACS Url always reaturns a default file names as "ACS.extension"

Hi,

I'm writng DFS code to retrieve URL content (ObjectService.Get in C#.net) from Documentum and What I received is a Downlaodable ACS url, When I paste the url in a browser it opens up with the File save dialog box with a default file name as "ACS.relevantExtension", But I want the actual file name to appear.

This is indeed required for scenerio's like with a Web application you may want to redirect the page directly to the downloadable url and allow the user to download it directly from the ACS server, instead of downloading the content at the server and renaming it by retrieving the object name from the table and save it to enable the client side downloading for the second time. Hope I'm clear...

I would appreciate early response on this. Thanks for all your help...

Thanks,

Kathir

You are right, we have also faced this problem, and we don't know any other workaround just that you have written.

We are also having this same problem. Has anybody found a solution since this was originally posted?

Thanks,

Proposed solution for anyone interested:

If you add &content_disposition_filename=test.pdf to the ACS URL, the document will get downloaded with the name of the object.

Please note, you will have to first get the object name of that document and then append it to the ACS URL.

Hi Peter..
I'm tryin to understand the meaning of all the ACS URL Parameters and i see that you explain one of them...
Wich Documentum Guide i will find these explanations about ACS URL ??
I didn't found it anywhere...

What i have to know is how long an ACS URL still valid and how to increase or decrease this time..

i believe its "&expire_delta=360" parameter.. but when i change it, the ACS throw "ACS_E_DIGITAL_SIGNATURE_DOESNT_MATCH" error...
