Get Output File

Overview

In order to get information for output file of a single queued job, you can consume the endpoint presented in this article. In order to consume it, you must:

• Be authenticated user

For information on how you can authenticate, see: Authentication

As soon as you do authentication and receive a valid token, it needs to be passed on the call for receiving a single queued job information.

• Have valid ID of an existing queued job

Endpoint

Example for such endpoint for TT server is:

https://tt.api.sellercloud.com/rest/api/QueuedJobs/OutputFile/{id}

For your server endpoint will be:

​https://{your_server_id}.api.sellercloud.com/rest/api/QueuedJobs/OutputFile/{id}

Request

• Method Type: HttpGet
• Authorization: Use Bearer Token + token received from token authentication
• Header info: Content-Type: application/json
• Parameters: ID of the existing queued job

Example: https://tt.api.sellercloud.com/rest/api/queuedjobs/outputfile/1

Response

• If user is authenticated and provides a valid ID of job, then response will be Status Code 200 => OK and encoded array of bytes, which represent the file content.That response content should be decoded from base-64 and array of bytes can be used to save and open the file.
  Name of the file and its extension are stored in the content header as ContentDisposition item

• If user is not authenticated, then response will be Status Code 401 => Not Valid Token
• On server response => Status Code 500 => Internal Server Error

Demo in c#

static async Task Main(string[] args)
        {
            await GetOutputFile();

            Console.WriteLine("Output file successfully downloaded!");
        }

        
static async Task GetOutputFile()
        {
 
   // Valid ID of a queued job must be provided here
   int jobID = 28142;

   // URL for downloading output file of a queued job
   string url = $"http://localhost:64158/api/QueuedJobs/OutputFile?id={jobID}";
   
   // Valid token must be provided here         
   string token = "test token";

            using (HttpClient client = new HttpClient())
            {
                client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Authorization =
                new AuthenticationHeaderValue("Bearer", token);
                HttpResponseMessage responseMessage = await client.GetAsync(url);

                var content = responseMessage.Content
                                             .ReadAsStringAsync()
                                             .Result;

                var contentInBytes = Convert.FromBase64String(content);

                System.IO.File.WriteAllBytes($@"C:DataTestRuns{responseMessage.Content.Headers.ContentDisposition.FileName}", contentInBytes);
            }
        }
