Error-The given path format is not supported

Hi,

You are right. Only the PDF filename part is dynamic I think. For dynamic PDF filename, I would suggest to check your API documentation. I can not tell you how that filename dynamic is handled without knowing your API flow.

Hi Pasanf

  I think this part will be fixed .- https://nimubs-assets.s3.amazonaws.com/manifest/

This will be dynamic -20221227113803-73.pdf

Thanks

Hi,

Dynamic filename depends on your case. May be there is different endpoint that gives you the online file URL.

Hi Pasand

  This has to be dynamic - 20221227113803-73.pdf. How i can get this from Api returned content.

It is not fixed.

Thanks

Hi,

Yes, you can do with RestSharp also. Below is the code example with RestSharp

var pdf = DateTime.Now.ToString("yyyyMMddHHmm");
var request = new RestRequest("/manifest/20221227113803-73.pdf", Method.Get);
var client = new RestClient("https://nimubs-assets.s3.amazonaws.com");
var content = client.DownloadData(request);

MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream(content);
FileStream file = new FileStream(@"D:\" + pdf + ".pdf", FileMode.Create, FileAccess.Write);
ms.WriteTo(file);
file.Close();
ms.Close();

Hi Pasang

    Can't we do thru Rest Sharp

Thanks

Hi,

You can try with below code also

using (var client = new HttpClient())
{
    var pdf = DateTime.Now.ToString("yyyyMMddHHmm");
    client.BaseAddress = new Uri("https://nimubs-assets.s3.amazonaws.com");
    var content = client.GetByteArrayAsync("/manifest/20221227112426-90.pdf");
    MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream(content.Result);
    FileStream file = new FileStream(@"D:\" + pdf + ".pdf", FileMode.Create, FileAccess.Write);
    ms.WriteTo(file);
    file.Close();
    ms.Close();
}

we cannot have certain characters in the full PathFile string.

For example, below characters will crash the StreamWriter function

Hi

  Can we do the same thru RestSharp. Below is returned in pdf

https://nimubs-assets.s3.amazonaws.com/manifest/20221227113803-73.pdf

Thanks

Hi

  Below is returned - https://nimubs-assets.s3.amazonaws.com/manifest/20221227112426-90.pdf

string pdf = json.data;
            byte[] buffer = client.DownloadData(request);

            MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream(buffer);
            FileStream file = new FileStream(@"D:\" + pdf , FileMode.Create, FileAccess.Write);

Thanks

Hi

   I am trying below code

dynamic json = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject(response.Content);
            string pdf = json.data;
            byte[] buffer = client.DownloadData(request);

            MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream(buffer);
            FileStream file = new FileStream(@"D:\" + pdf + ".pdf", FileMode.Create, FileAccess.Write);
            ms.WriteTo(file);
            file.Close();
            ms.Close();

Thanks

Your code doent generated any error for me.

As @Pasang said , the issue might be in your file name variable - pdf

Hi Ramco,

It's difficult to point out what problem exactly without having complete code. As I see something must be wrong in your pdf variable which you are using for filename. Below code works with me

var pdf = DateTime.Now.ToString("yyyyMMddHHmm");
var test = "Some pdf content goes here";
byte[] buffer = Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(test);

MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream(buffer);
FileStream file = new FileStream(@"D:\" + pdf + ".pdf", FileMode.Create, FileAccess.Write);
ms.WriteTo(file);
file.Close();
ms.Close();
