Downloading File from File Manager

CodeArts Build stores your Android APK signature files and settings.xml files of Maven builds, and helps you manage these files. For example, you can create, edit, and delete these files, and modify users' permissions on them. For details about how to upload files, see Uploading a File. Add the Download File from File Manager action to download files from Files to the working directory for use.
