Way to download from A360 to your hard drive?

I'm looking for a function similar to DataFile.move(location) that allows the location to be somewhere on your local disk rather than an A360 folder object. Does this exist?

The solution for this is to use the new Forge API's and in this case, specifically the Data Management API of Forge.  They're a completely different animal than the Fusion API so don't expect things to be familiar.

What language does the Forge API use? Any chance this functionality will be added to the fusion API at some point? Fusion supports uploading currently, with the DataFolder.uploadFile(file) method.

Forge is a set of web services so you can use any language that supports calling a RESTful web service, which is most languages these days.
