This object controls uploading and downloading data from the appliance.
If a call to ‘uploadinit’ is made, this will return a token and a URL, and the file will be uploaded to the URL. Depending on what the file is used for, the appropriate uploading function call will be executed. Example: setfiledest.
For an invocation example, see the sample code section in the manual here.
If a call to the function that provides the requested data (such as getgriddata) is made, the appliance will return a token and a URL, and the file will be downloaded from the URL. Afterwards, ‘downloadcomplete’ needs to be called.
For an invocation example, see the sample code section in the manual here.
Note: the returned URL should be used as-is, without further processing. Some functions, for example csv_snapshot_file, will return URLs with embedded %-encoded characters.
