Retrieving blobs
Blob metadata
The blob metadata might look like this:
{
"blobId": "[id]",
"blobPath": "/span/collections/ ... /blobs/[id]",
"contentType": "image/png",
"size": "2051071",
"created": "1676970558762161756",
"collectionId": " ... ",
"deviceId": " ... ",
"gatewayId": "3",
"properties": {
"address": "[host:port for the POST request]",
"method": "POST",
"path": "/some/random/path"
}
}
The blobPath
parameter points to a regular HTTP resource you can use to retrieve the blob. The client must
be authenticated with an API token. If you are using cURL you can download the image with
curl -HX-API-Token:[your API token] \
https://api.lab5e.com/span/collections/[collectionId]/blobs/[blobId] \
--output [local file]
