getpubzip

Name

getpubzip

Auth

no

Description

Create a zip archive file of a public link file and download it

Same as getzip, but works on public file identified by code (and fileid if link is to a folder)

Takes code and optional parameters to define a tree and streams a zip file.

The code could be obtained from:

  • getfilepublink - link to a single file
  • getfolderpublink - link to a folder
  • gettreepublink - link to a tree
  • getcollectionpublink - link to a collection
filename, forcedownload and timeoffset optional parameters work the same way as in getzip.

URL

https://api.pcloud.com/getpubzip

Required

ParameterDescription
codestring either 'code' or 'shortcode'

Optional

ParameterDescription
forcedownloadint If it is set, the content-type will be 'application/octet-stream', if not - 'application/zip'.
filenamestring If it is provided, this is sent back as 'Content-Disposition' header, forcing the browser to adopt this filename when downloading the file.

Filename is passed unaltered, so it MUST include the .zip extension.

timeoffsetstring desired time offset

Output

When successful it returns a zip archive over the current API connection with all the files and directories in the requested tree.
