Get File by fileId

GET {{url}}/{{tenantName}}/{{instanceName}}/files/:fileId

Endpoint: GET {{url}}/{{tenantName}}/{{instanceName}}/files/:fileId

Description:
A file refresh endpoint is required to renew an expired link to a file. The endpoint should accept a fileID as a parameter in order to proceed.

URL Parameters:

  • {{url}}: The base URL of the API.
  • {{tenantName}}: The name or identifier of the tenant within the system.
  • {{instanceName}}: The name or identifier of the specific instance within the tenant.
  • :fileId: The unique identifier of the file being requested. This parameter should be replaced with the actual fileId value.

HTTP Method:
GET

Authorization:
Depending on the system's security policies, this endpoint may require authentication and authorization. Valid credentials or access tokens may be required to access and download the file.

Response:
The response from this endpoint will typically contain the requested file or the necessary information to retrieve the file. The exact structure of the response may depend on the system's implementation. If the file is available, the response may include the file content or a link to download the file.

Example Request:
GET {{url}}/{{tenantName}}/{{instanceName}}/files/123456

Example Response (File Content):
The response can vary based on the file type and system implementation. For binary files, the response might include the file content as raw bytes.

Example Response (File Download Link):

jsonCopy code{
  "fileId": "123456",
  "fileName": "example.pdf",
  "downloadLink": "https://example.com/downloads/123456"
}

Note: The above example response is for illustrative purposes only and may not reflect the actual response format of the system.

Error Handling:
In case of errors, the endpoint may return appropriate HTTP status codes along with error messages or error objects to indicate the failure reason. Common status codes include 4xx for client errors (e.g., invalid fileId) and 5xx for server errors (e.g., internal server error).

Security Considerations:
To ensure the security and privacy of files, proper authentication and authorization mechanisms should be implemented for accessing this endpoint. Access to files may need to be restricted based on user roles and permissions.

Rate Limiting:
To prevent abuse or overload on the system, rate limiting mechanisms may be applied to this endpoint. Clients may need to adhere to certain limits on the number of requests per time period.

Note: Replace the placeholder variables (e.g., {{url}}, {{tenantName}}, {{instanceName}}, :fileId) with actual values specific to your system implementation.
