File handling in deviceWISE Cloud is used to disable Chunked encoding.
Chunked encoding is a data transfer mechanism of the HTTP (Hypertext Transfer Protocol) in which the data stream is divided into a series of chunks. The chucks are sent out and received independently of one another.
The file.get API command by default downloads the file using chunked encoding. But when you disable chunked encoding in the File handling page of deviceWISE Cloud the files are downloaded without using the chunked encoding.
By default all files are downloaded using chunked encoding. If you want to disable chunked encoding, edit the File handling and this setting will be applied organization wide. For more information on editing the File handling, see Editing File handling
