    Thanks Stefan,

    i have created a Web API based on Document download template with default GET as HTTP Method. 

    Now sample webapi for one of the document with id like "https://<ourAppianCloudInstance>/suite/webapi/downloadapi/7024"

    Can I give this URL as BLOB URL when the external API expecting a BLOBUrl as parameter intheir input payload?

    Calling that API will return the binary file as the HTTP body.
