AI-generatedSummary
Download an asset from Karakeep by its ID, optionally returning the file as binary data or only the download URL.
Inputs
- assetId (required) — The ID of the asset to retrieve or download.
- returnFormat — How to return the asset data; either as binary file or as a URL only.
- binaryPropertyName — Name of the binary property to store the downloaded file when returnFormat is binary.
Output shape
An n8n item containing JSON metadata about the asset. When returnFormat is binary, the item also includes a binary property with the file data; when returnFormat is url, the JSON contains the download URL string.
The exact JSON fields depend on the Karakeep asset response (e.g., id, name, mimeType, size, etc.).
Examples
Example 1: Download asset as binary data
assetId set to the target asset ID, returnFormat = Binary Data, binaryPropertyName = data
Example 2: Get only the download URL
assetId set to the target asset ID, returnFormat = Download URL
