Download a file on Autodesk Forge using .NET

I am unsure how to download objects inside a bucket. The file I am currently able to download has a significantly smaller size compared to the file uploaded in the bucket. In addition, I am unable to open the file after it is downloaded. Is there something missing in my code? The following code is what I used to download files.



var element = document.createElement('a');

element.setAttribute('href', '#');
element.setAttribute('download', node.text);
element.style.display = 'none';

document.body.appendChild(element);
element.click();
document.body.removeChild(element);

          You refer my answer here (Download BIM360 Docs file using Javascript) to download files from Forge OSS bucket.



          In this suggestion, I extended the jQuery function to creates new XMLHttpRequest and passes all the received data back to the jQuery.



          /**
          *
          * jquery.binarytransport.js
          *
          * @description. jQuery ajax transport for making binary data type requests.
          * @version 1.0
          * @author Henry Algus <henryalgus@gmail.com>
          *
          */
          // use this transport for "binary" data type
          $.ajaxTransport("+binary", function(options, originalOptions, jqXHR) {
          // check for conditions and support for blob / arraybuffer response type
          if (window.FormData && ((options.dataType && (options.dataType == 'binary')) || (options.data && ((window.ArrayBuffer && options.data instanceof ArrayBuffer) || (window.Blob && options.data instanceof Blob))))) {
          return {
          // create new XMLHttpRequest
          send: function(headers, callback) {
          // setup all variables
          var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest(),
          url = options.url,
          type = options.type,
          async = options.async || true,
          // blob or arraybuffer. Default is blob
          dataType = options.responseType || "blob",
          data = options.data || null,
          username = options.username || null,
          password = options.password || null;

          xhr.addEventListener('load', function() {
          var data = {};
          data[options.dataType] = xhr.response;
          // make callback and send data
          callback(xhr.status, xhr.statusText, data, xhr.getAllResponseHeaders());
          });

          xhr.open(type, url, async, username, password);

          // setup custom headers
          for (var i in headers) {
          xhr.setRequestHeader(i, headers[i]);
          }

          xhr.responseType = dataType;
          xhr.send(data);
          },
          abort: function() {
          jqXHR.abort();
          }
          };
          }
          });


          Afterward, you can simply replace values of filename, bucketKey and YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN to yours to download files on the website directly. However, it could be very unsafe, please see the comment here



          $(function() {

          $('a#download').click(function(event) {
          event.preventDefault();

          const filename = 'hose.rvt';
          const bucketKey = 'adn-test';

          const settings = {
          crossDomain: true,
          url: 'https://developer.api.autodesk.com/oss/v2/buckets/' + bucketKey + ' /objects/' + filename,

          dataType: 'binary',
          processData: false,
          headers: {

          Content-Type: 'application/octet-stream'
          }
          };

          $.ajax(settings).done(function (blob, textStatus, jqXHR) {
          console.log(blob );
          console.log(textStatus);

          if( navigator.msSaveBlob )
          return navigator.msSaveBlob(blob, filename);

          const url = URL.createObjectURL(blob);
          const a = document.createElement('a');
          a.style = 'display: none';
          document.body.appendChild(a);

          a.href = url;
          a.download = filename;
          a.click();
          URL.revokeObjectURL(url);

          xhr.responseType = dataType;

          });


          Afterward, you can simply replace values of filename, bucketKey and YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN to yours to download files on the website directly. However, it could be very unsafe, please see the comment here



          $(function() {

          $('a#download').click(function(event) {
          event.preventDefault();

          const filename = 'hose.rvt';
          const bucketKey = 'adn-test';

          const settings = {
          crossDomain: true,
          url: 'https://developer.api.autodesk.com/oss/v2/buckets/' + bucketKey + ' /objects/' + filename,

          Content-Type: 'application/octet-stream'
          }

          $.ajax(settings).done(function (blob, textStatus, jqXHR) {
          console.log(blob );
          console.log(textStatus);

          if( navigator.msSaveBlob )
          return navigator.msSaveBlob(blob, filename);

          const url = URL.createObjectURL(blob);
          const a = document.createElement('a');
          a.style = 'display: none';
          document.body.appendChild(a);

          a.href = url;

          In this suggestion, I extended the jQuery function to creates new XMLHttpRequest and passes all the received data back to the jQuery.



          /**
          *
          * jquery.binarytransport.js

          * @author Henry Algus <henryalgus@gmail.com>
          *
          */
          // use this transport for "binary" data type
          $.ajaxTransport("+binary", function(options, originalOptions, jqXHR) {
          // check for conditions and support for blob / arraybuffer response type
          if (window.FormData && ((options.dataType && (options.dataType == 'binary')) || (options.data && ((window.ArrayBuffer && options.data instanceof ArrayBuffer) || (window.Blob && options.data instanceof Blob))))) {
          return {
          // create new XMLHttpRequest
          send: function(headers, callback) {
          // setup all variables
          var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest(),
          url = options.url,
          type = options.type,
          async = options.async || true,
          // blob or arraybuffer. Default is blob
          dataType = options.responseType || "blob",
          data = options.data || null,
          username = options.username || null,
          password = options.password || null;

          xhr.addEventListener('load', function() {
          var data = {};
          data[options.dataType] = xhr.response;
          // make callback and send data
          callback(xhr.status, xhr.statusText, data, xhr.getAllResponseHeaders());
          });

          xhr.open(type, url, async, username, password);

          // setup custom headers
          for (var i in headers) {
          xhr.setRequestHeader(i, headers[i]);
          }

          xhr.responseType = dataType;
          xhr.send(data);
          },
