Remarks
Note
This function is not fully supported by the Microsoft Dynamics NAV Web client on devices that run Apple iOS, such as iPad. You can only download a file if the Apple iOS device on which you are downloading the file has an application that supports the file type.
In Dynamics NAV, the business logic is run on the computer that is running Microsoft Dynamics NAV Server and not on the client. Files are created on the computer that is running Microsoft Dynamics NAV Server and not locally on the client computer.
UPLOAD Function (File) and UPLOADINTOSTREAM Function (File) are used to send a file from the client to a Microsoft Dynamics NAV Server instance.
DOWNLOAD Function (FILE) and DOWNLOADFROMSTREAM Function (File) are used to send a file from a Microsoft Dynamics NAV Server instance to the client.
We recommend that you use the functions in codeunit 419 File Management to upload and download files.
Note
Internet browsers can only handle one file per request. Therefore, with the Web client, if this method is called in a repetitive statement (or loop) that generates multiple files, only the last file will be sent to the browser. Alternatively, when designing for the Web client, bundle the files in an archive file (.zip), for example, by using the methods found in codeunit 419 File Management. For more details about this design pattern, see Multi-File Download.
