ProjectWise - Get File

Retrieves a document from ProjectWise and downloads its file content to the workflow's working folder.

Purpose

Use this task when a workflow needs a local copy of a ProjectWise document for further processing — such as format conversion, content extraction, or publishing to another system. The task resolves the document by its identifier, fetches its metadata, downloads the file, and makes both available to downstream tasks.

Service Account

Requires a Bentley ProjectWise service account.
