Retrieve a flagged community file 

To retrieve a flagged community file, use the link element found in the file entry.

You can use this operation to obtain file information that you want to preserve prior to performing an update. See Update a flagged community file for more information. This method returns the Atom entry of a single file as opposed to a feed of all the files.

See Authenticating requests for information about how to authenticate the request.

To retrieve a flagged file...

  1. Retrieve the moderation service document. See Retrieve the Files moderation service document for more details.

  2. In the service document, locate the workspace with the <category term="documents-moderation" .../> child element, and then find the collection with the <atom:category term="review-content" .../> child element, and make a note of the web address in its href attribute.

  3. Send a GET request to the web address you copied from the previous step. In the returned feed, find the entry that you want to retrieve, and make a note of the web address in the href attribute of the <link> element with the following rel attribute value:

    • To get the Atom document of the file: rel="edit"

    • To download the file itself: rel="enclosure"

  4. Send a GET request to the URL that you noted in the previous step.
