/parallels/<uuid>/downloads/¶

The /parallels/<uuid>/downloads/ endpoint permits downloading of the results from a Tesserae intertext discovery run. Note that <uuid> is a placeholder for an identifying string.

NB: This endpoint is meant to be used for retrieving the results from a Tesserae search and not as a permanent link to a previously completed search’s results.

GET¶

Requesting GET at /parallels/<uuid>/downloads/ retrieves the Tesserae search results associated with <uuid>. This association was made at the time that the intertext query was submitted with a POST at /parallels/.

Request¶

There are no special things to do with a GET request to the /parallels/<uuid>/downloads/ endpoint.

Response¶

On success, the response body will be a gzipped tab-delimited file containing the results of the search associated with <uuid>.

A 404 Not Found error indicates one of two possibilities. One is that the specified <uuid> does not exist in the database. The other is that the results associated with <uuid> are not yet ready for download. In either case, the /parallels/<uuid>/status/ endpoint may be helpful.
