The simplest way would be to use the ReST API to retrieve the content of that file using the getNodeContent operation - you have to use the UUID of the node as the nodeId for this operation, i.e. if the nodeRef for that document is workspace://SpacesStore/12345 then the UUID would be 12345

Thank you so much for the response.

1, Can I download the file by create an action? if yes, could you show me a simple case please.

2, Can I transform the file into a stream file then sending to another remote computer?
