Downloading a File Using a QuickLink
To download a specific file when the internal file ID is known, use the following syntax for constructing a quicklink:
http(s)://<server>/<site>/Framework/Endpoint/DownloadFile.ashx?d=<dsn name>&fileID=<file ID>
where:
d=AssetWise community name (site\dsn)
fileID=internal database ID for the file
Parameter Details
- The "&" character is used to separate each parameter in the quicklink. The "&" is optional in front of the first parameter (for example, it could be &d=<dsn name> or just d=<dsn name>), but the "&" must precede the remaining parameters in the quicklink.
- You can locate the file ID using the following methods:
Example URL
http://san-srv-qa2/ALIMWeb/Framework/Endpoint/DownloadFile.ashx?d=eBProd&fileID=68123
The preferred method is to use the document number QuickLink specifying <m=v> or <m=l> to view or launch the files in a document.
