  • Custom Refresh Token — An optional override for the refresh token from credentials if using Refresh Token authentication.

Output shape

A single output item containing an empty JSON object and a binary data property named 'data' with the downloaded file content.

The binary data is prepared from the raw response body as a Buffer under the field 'data'. Errors during download cause a workflow error unless 'Continue On Fail' is enabled.

Examples

Example 1: Download a file by its File ID using Refresh Token authentication with automatic token refreshing.

Set 'Authentication' to 'Refresh Token (Auto-Refresh)', provide the 'File ID' of the target file, optionally override the refresh token under 'Options' if needed.
