Hey,
I am saving a file using the annotation entity, I need to save the attached file on my local pc in a specific file, is it possible to do it using a plugin (postupdate ot postcreate) to save a file localy  or there are some security issue about this procesure? 
thanks

    Hi There,

    You can very well do that. but only challenge would be to save them - where exactly you want to save them?  I assume its going to be very difficult because the plugin code would trigger on the server side.

    for plugin to download/retrieve the attachment : docs.microsoft.com/.../sample-upload-retrieve-download-attachment

    however I would suggest try implementing a javascript web api request. using which you can retrieve and save the file locally to user's pc.
