Dear Gregory!

I tested API v1, and i can download partial content which is good. Thanks.

But ... as is see API v1 is not support file access with ID. only with file path.

This is good while i have no special characters in name.

With special characters (for example: öüóőúéáűí) i got the path in encoded form. \u000

If i try to read file content for file with special \u000 encode characters in its name, i got error:

 "backslash not supported." the url encoding not helps. The question is:

How can i read file content with API v1 for files with special characters in the name?
