Downloads_GetLink - Link Expiration

Hi there,

we have been making API calls using URI in the following format:
example.co.uk/api/1.0/Downloads_GetLink/assetId=40159513205/sessionId=.../settings={permanent:true}

this generates download links that seem to expire after 7 days even though we have set the permanent flag to true.
we have configured the IMS account to Allow permanent Secure File Fetch URLs.

Is there a problem in the format of the URI we are using?

Looking forward to a reply.

Regards,
Kenny

Re: Downloads_GetLink - Link Expiration

Hi Kenny, the issue in your request is that the settings parameter requires JSON and {permanent:true} isn't valid JSON. It works as a javascript literal but to be valid json the object keys need to be quoted. i.e. {"permanent":true}
