Downloading Files

Downloading from the User Console

To download files that have been uploaded to Harvest Files, simply click the Menu button, then select SORACOM Harvest Files.

https://console.soracom.io

Harvest Files browser

You can then browse through the files to download a file directly within your web browser.

Programmatic Usage

You can also use the Soracom API or Soracom CLI to download files.

Soracom API

To access the Soracom API, first use the auth API to obtain an API Key and Token. Refer to the API Reference Guide for instructions on how to use the API Key and Token in API requests.

Then, use the listFiles API to get a list of files stored by Harvest Files:

curl -X GET \
>  -H "X-Soracom-API-Key: <MY-API-KEY>" \
>  -H "X-Soracom-Token: <MY-TOKEN>" \
>  -H "Accept: application/json" \
>  https://g.api.soracom.io/v1/files/private/<PATH>/

A JSON object containing a list of files will be returned. By default, this API will return the first 10 files. To increase the number of files returned in the list, specify a limit using the limit query parameter in the request URL, such as https://g.api.soracom.io/v1/files/private/?limit=100. The maximum amount of files that can be retrieve per request is 100. If you have more than 100 files stored in Harvest Files, the API response will also return a value link in the response header indicating the request URL to use to retrieve the next set of files.

Then, use the getFile API to download a file to your local machine:

curl -X GET -O -J \
>  -H "X-Soracom-API-Key: <MY-API-KEY>" \
>  -H "X-Soracom-Token: <MY-TOKEN>" \
>  https://g.api.soracom.io/v1/files/private/<PATH>/<FILE>

You can repeat the getFile API call while looping through the list returned from the listFiles API in order to download multiple files at once.

Soracom CLI

To use the Soracom CLI, you must first configure it to authenticate with your account information, authorization key, or SAM user credentials.

Then, run the following command to get a list of files stored in Harvest Files:

soracom files list --coverage-type g

By default, the CLI will return the first 10 files. To increase the number of files returned in the list, use the --limit flag to specify a new limit. Compared to the API usage, you can use the --fetch-all flag to automatically perform pagination and return a list of all files at once.

Then, run the following command to download a specific file:

soracom files get --path "<PATH>/<FILE>" --coverage-type g

Similar to the API, you can repeat the soracom files get command while looping through the list returned from the soracom files list command in order to download multiple files at once.
