Downloading Assembled Documents
Once you have a completed work item version, you can download the documents assembled. This action is typically performed at the request of the end user who has just finished the interview.
Prerequisites
Before making a request to download the documents, you must have an access token to sign the request. You can retrieve an access token using one of the following flows:
- Getting an access token using the Resource Owner flow
- Getting an access token using the Implicit flow
Additionally, you must have the following items:
-
A work item with a completed version (see Completing a Work Item Version)
Overview
The 'download assembled documents' API method is a query method. The API client invoking this method must have a query scope.
The downloading assembled documents method requires two API requests:
- Get a list of work item documents
- Download the document(s)
You can then download the assembled documents by handling the response stream.
