generateFileDownloadUrl( )


Generates one or more temporary URLs for downloading a specific file in the Media Manager.

To download different assets of the file, specify the assetKeys parameter which generates a download URL for each asset. If no assetKey is specified, it defaults to src, which generates one download URL in the original file's format and quality.

Call this endpoint to grant external clients access to a private media file. Specify the expirationInMinutes parameter to set the URL expiration time, and the expirationRedirectUrl parameter to add a redirect url when the URL expires.

To generate a permanent URL for downloading a compressed file that contains multiple files in the Media Manager, call the Generate Files Download URL endpoint. Since this is a permanent URL, it is less secure. Therefore, to download private files, call the Generate File Download URL endpoint for each private file that you want to generate a download URL for.
