Summary

Download a file from Synology Drive by specifying its path, returning the file content as binary data suitable for further workflow processing.

Inputs

  • Path (required) — The full path to the file in Synology Drive to be downloaded, e.g., '/mydrive/...'. This path is mandatory to identify the file to download.

Output shape

a single item containing the downloaded file's binary data and an empty JSON object

Returns binary data of the downloaded file, with its filename and MIME type derived from the server response headers. If the file is actually JSON content, the output provides JSON instead of binary. The operation returns a single output item.

Examples

Example 1: Download a PDF report stored at '/mydrive/reports/annual_report.pdf'

Set the 'Path' parameter to '/mydrive/reports/annual_report.pdf' to retrieve the file's binary content.
