Alfresco REST API for downloading document

Question

I want to use the Afresco REST API to download a document. After some research I find out this REST API:

/alfresco/s/api/node/content{property}/{store_type}/         


        

Answer 1

You can find details of every web-script (REST API) in alfresco on below URL.

http://localhost:8080/alfresco/service/index

For your API it is given as below.

http://localhost:8080/alfresco/service/script/org/alfresco/cmis/content.get

Description of parameter is as below.

Property   : Name of property which you want to retrieve.
store_type : Workspace Protocol
store_id   : Store Id of node
id         : Id of node.

Answer 2

For this NodeRef

workspace://SpacesStore/7f77488a-60a0-48c3-9369-77183ccad0d2

the values for parameter will be:

{property}: content
{store_type}: Workspace
{store_id}: spaceStore
{id}: 7f77488a-60a0-48c3-9369-77183ccad0d2 

Details related to each parameter is already specified by Krutik.

And you should use this download url.

/alfresco/d/<d|a>/<workspace>/<store>/<nodeId>/<filename>

where d=direct and a=attached.

The attach or direct element is used to indicate whether to display the stream directly in the browser or download it as a file attachment.
