Content - Get Content Download Url
This API retrieves a pre-signed URL for accessing a content file for the title. A subsequent HTTP GET to the returned URL will attempt to download the content. A HEAD query to the returned URL will attempt to retrieve the metadata of the content. Note that a successful result does not guarantee the existence of this content - if it has not been uploaded, the query to retrieve the data will fail. See this post for more information: https://community.playfab.com/hc/community/posts/205469488-How-to-upload-files-to-PlayFab-s-Content-Service. Also, please be aware that the Content service is specifically PlayFab's CDN offering, for which standard CDN rates apply.
