Use the downloadFile method to download a selected feed file.

Note:The downloaded file will be gzipped automatically, so there is no reason to supply Accept-Encoding:gzip as a header. If this header is supplied, the downloaded file will be compressed twice, and this has no extra benefit.

Use the getFiles methods to obtain the file_id of the specific feed file you require.

Downloading feed files

The feed files are binary gzip files. If the file is larger than 200 MB, the download must be streamed in chunks. You specify the size of the chunks in bytes using the Range request header. The content-range response header indicates where in the full resource this partial chunk of data belongs and the total number of bytes in the file. For more information about using these headers, see Retrieving a GZIP feed file.

In addition to the API, there is an open source Feed V1 SDK written in .NET that downloads, combines files into a single file when needed, and unzips the entire feed file. It also lets you specify field filters to curate the items in the file.
