Download Attachment

Hi
I'm able to send and receive the messages easily using OAuth and the given Yahoo Mail Web Services Documentations.
But when it comes to attachment, i am receiving quite ambiguous errors and the attachment is not getting downloaded.
If i use expired token, 404 response comes and it says that "page requested not found".
If i use a validated token, ie. if auth is success, then status code 500 comes without any response body or response header.
I'm including the mid and pid(using partId which i got from GetMessage API) as well. Kindly tell me what more i've to include or what error is there???

Thanks

  • Hi,

    Can you paste your entire GET request? Also are you including the fid and setting clean(if required)?
    Refer this link http://developer.yahoo.com/mail/docs/user_...achmentExamples and you can ignore the redirectUrl.

  • Hi
    Thanks, it worked.
    But i would again suggest you to mention these things in the documentation. Only because of this change i wasted so many days and did so many unusual things.
    Anyways, thanks for the quick responses.
    Regards
    Kaku
