      var result = document.createElement('a');
      var contentDisposition = response.headers.get('Content-Disposition') || '';
      var filename = contentDisposition.split('filename=')[1];
      filename = filename.replace(/"/g,"")

      return response.blob()
        .then(function(data) {
          result.href = window.URL.createObjectURL(data);
          result.target = '_self';

@fgcui1204 I don't knwo if you still having this issue, but maybe this can help you:

See: https://developer.mozilla.org/es/docs/Web/API/URL/createObjectURL

@11joselu I do not understand what needs to be the result from your api call? The file path?
And why do you use getZIPData when getZIPData is not mentioned in fileUtils.js?
