Downloading a file:

https://forge.autodesk.com/en/docs/data/v2/tutorials/download-file/

1. First navigate to the hub -> project -> folder (-> subfolder)

   • For our purposes, we know the hub id (Bechtel Center), project (will make a project supporting file syncing service), folders associated with project (one for each machine group) and can ignore subfolders
   • Each file (not folder) will have both a item and version associated with it
   • API endpoint for getting contents of folder: https://developer.api.autodesk.com/data/v1/projects/:project_id/folders/:folder_id/contents

2. We can download an item using the get the storage id from the version of that item

   • API endpoint for downloading item: https://developer.api.autodesk.com/oss/v2/buckets/:bucket_key/objects/:object_name
     • bucket_key should just be 'wip.dm.prod'
     • object_name gathered from previous step, using the version of a file
   • Returns raw binary

3. Save binary to a file
