Hi, I am using gettemporarylink API to obtain url to the file that can be later played. That url when requested itself, returns wrong Content-Type header for media files. For example audio file with m4a extension now has Content-Type response header set to “application/binary” instead of “audio/mp4” or “audio/mpeg”. Such behaviour has started in the last 24 hours and breaks our entire workflow. No changes were made on our side and it used to work before. Could you please look into this?

@abiluck The request for that is still open with the team, but I don't have any news on that right now. I'll follow up here with any update on that.

@abiluck We're now returning "audio/mp4" for .m4b files as well. Hope this helps!
