Question

Hello,I'm working on a AE extension that sends requests to a API. The API returns a .glb file formated in a really long https://assets.............. link How would I automaticaly have the extenstion download the link, save it in folder localy as a .glb file then add it to a open composition in Affter Effects?I think I need to have JavaScript and Exendscript download the link localy  and work together to make this hapen, but (how) is my question.

Hello @Joshua26061534c1f9,Thanks for the question and welcome to the After Effects forum. Glad to have you here. My name is Kevin, and I'm a moderator here. This is a user-to-user forum, if you were not aware. However, the product team does contribute from time to time.  I'm not an expert in either Javascript or ExtendScript coding skills, so I'm afraid I have to ask for your patience as you await a viable workflow. I assume that the Javascript portion of the code would be for downloading the file and then once it is saved, you can then use ExtendScript to integrate it into an open composition.  I hope the community can help you here shortly. Sorry for the delay. Thanks,Kevin
