Downloading a file attachment to a temp location via SOAP

Content

Hi All

Ok so we are trying to grab file attachments and then send them over web services into another API so its creates them on their side.  What we have works but it doesn't grab the attachment data as its not available of CPHP.

I believe we are going to have to use SOAP to actually download the file to a /tmp location and then send it from that file.

Does anyone have any examples for this ? we've been going through the documentation but cant find anything in there that helps.

We will be doing this from the custom scripts folder in file manager.
