Download a file from a remote compute resource. Files are available for transactions, and you can retrieve the list of available files with QueryRemoteFile v2. See StartRemoteTransaction v2 for how to start (create) a newtransaction.
For specific details on remote algorithms when using the Mantid web service remote job submission API, see the remote job submission API docs.
Version 1 downloads files using the Mantid remote job submission API. This is still supported as one of the variants of Versions 2 and above, when the compute resource uses the Mantid remote job submission API as job manager (underlying remote job scheduling mechanism).
