How to download a Filerobot asset using API?

Filerobot Headless DAM can be used for organizing, optimizing and delivering millions of media assets via API and integrating into your tech stack easily. You can find the API documentation here.

There are two methods by which you can download Filerobot-hosted assets:

1. Using file UUID:

You need to send a GET request to https://api.filerobot.com/:token/v5/get/:file_uuid 

with your API Key as headers. Here token refers to your Filerobot token and file_uuid refers to the Filerobot UUID of the file you want to download. You can read more about it from our documentation along with examples.

 

2. Using the CDN link of the asset:

You need to append a query parameter &download=1 to the CDN URL of the asset and send a GET request. Example:
CDN URL: https://fbmjmuoeb.filerobot.com/Docs/bag.jpg?vh=106df3

Download asset GET request to: https://fbmjmuoeb.filerobot.com/Docs/bag.jpg?vh=106df3&download=1

Please note that the second method does not need any authentication headers.
