How to download an asset from Widen API?
You first need to search for your file and store the download link from the search response under the _links => download properties of the item.
var myHeaders = new Headers();
myHeaders.append("Authorization", "Bearer fittingbox/********************************");
var requestOptions = {
method: 'GET',
headers: myHeaders
};
fetch("https://api.widencollective.com/v2/assets/search?query=fn:{00293654786012_86.tif}&expand=metadata,embeds", requestOptions)
.then(response => response.json())
.then(result => {
fetch(result.items[0]._links.download)
.then(res => res.blob())
.then(blob => {
var file = window.URL.createObjectURL(blob);
window.location.assign(file);
});
})
.catch(error => console.log('error', error));
How to rename the file?
If you want to rename your file, you can force the download and change the filename adding this line:
a.download = "yourNewName.tif";
var myHeaders = new Headers();
myHeaders.append("Authorization", "Bearer fittingbox/********************************");
var requestOptions = {
method: 'GET',
headers: myHeaders
};
fetch("https://api.widencollective.com/v2/assets/search?query=fn:{00293654786012_86.tif}&expand=metadata,embeds", requestOptions)
.then(response => response.json())
.then(result => {
fetch(result.items[0]._links.download)
.then(res => res.blob())
.then(blob => {
var url = window.URL.createObjectURL(blob);
var a = document.createElement('a');
a.href = url;
a.download = "yourNewName.tif";
document.body.appendChild(a);
a.click();
a.remove();
});
})
.catch(error => console.log('error', error));
