Transferring a file from a network resource (HTML)
Purpose
Enable your app to transfer files to and from locations on the web. JavaScript implementation options include HttpClient and Background Transfer.
Background Transfer is primarily designed for long-term transfer operations for resources like video, music, and large images. For a high-level look at Background Transfer, see Transferring data in the background. HttpClient is recommended for short-term operations involving transfers of smaller resources (a few KB, for example).
