See more MedTunnel Examples

Get a specific attachment of a message. The MessageId and AttachmentId are obtained from the "Get Mailbox Messages" example. Swift

func chilkatTest() {
    var success: Bool = false

    // This example assumes the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
    // See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

    let http = CkoHttp()!

    // Implements the following CURL command:

    // curl -X GET -k 
    //         -H "Authorization:PutAuthorizationTokenHere" 
    //         https://server.medtunnel.com/medtunnelmsg/api/Message/GetAttachment?messageid=989448&attachmentid=424857&setreadflag=false

    // Use the following online tool to generate HTTP code from a CURL command
    // Convert a cURL Command to HTTP Source Code

    http.setRequestHeader(name: "Authorization", value: "PutAuthorizationTokenHere")

    // The messageId and attachmentId are contained in the response from reading the mailbox messages.
    http.setUrlVar(name: "messageId", value: "989448")
    http.setUrlVar(name: "attachmentId", value: "424857")
    http.setUrlVar(name: "setReadFlag", value: "false")

    // Download the attachment data into bd.
    let bd = CkoBinData()!
    success = http.quickGetBd(url: "https://server.medtunnel.com/MedTunnelMsg/api/Message/GetAttachment?messageid={$messageId}&attachmentid={$attachmentId}&setreadflag={$setReadFlag}", binData: bd)
    if success == false {
        print("\(http.lastErrorText!)")
        return
    }

    var respStatusCode: Int = http.lastStatus.intValue
    print("Response Status Code = \(respStatusCode)")
    if respStatusCode >= 400 {
        print("Response Header:")
        print("\(http.lastHeader!)")
        // For errors, the response body contains an error message instead of the actual attachment data.
        print("Response Body:")
        print("\(bd.getString(charset: "utf-8")!)")
        print("Failed.")
        return
    }

    // Save the attachment data.
    // The attachment filename is also contained in the response from reading the mailbox messages.
    success = bd.writeFile(path: "qa_output/starfish.jpg")
    if success != true {
        print("Failed to save attachment file.")
    }
