Update (01/14/2019): Finally back to trying to use this code. A resolution was seemingly made, but not fully implemented. I am able to access the API now, but I still cannot use file/download. I have...

I know how to get the calls to function. The platform is still fairly straight forward. You can say that Linden Labs is at fault for their specifications, yes. However that is the easy way out ignoring that if version 1 of the API was not depracated, this would still be functioning. I wrote this system in v1, and there was no guarantee that it would continue to work, but right now the point remains that the differences between v1 and v2 have broken code for some people to a point where it could not continue after version 1 was deprecated. I had to abandon my project a year and a half ago, and after being told it would work I came back to it. Only, it doesn't work.

7 years agoThanks for the feedback! It's much appreciated, and I've shared it with the team.
As far as specific changes to API v2 are concerned, the original requested change here, to support more Content-Type values for requests to /2/files/download, was implemented and is working. Is there another specific change that would be helpful for API v2? I can't make any promises as to whether or not we'd be able to make any particular change, but I'd be happy to send along another request to do so.
