In Talend Studio R2025-08, the "Returned content" dropdown of the tHttpClient component does not display the "Download file only" option. However, as per the Qlik Talend documentation, this option should be available (alongside Body, Headers and body, Status, headers and body) and is used in conjunction with "Download attachments" to download only the response file without returning the payload to the main flow.
Answer
This option has been added to the tHTTPClient component since Qlik Talend Studio R2025-09, allowing users to download HTTP response bodies directly as files or to cache without building records in the main flow, which helps optimize resource usage for large downloads.
