Finding the content element of a gdata entry

Question

The Google Documents List API (v3) references a "content element" several times. In the content element there is a URI to export the file and the mime type of the file.

How can I find the content element and extract that information?

Thank you!

Answer 1

i used google oauth playground to make a sample request - posted response on pastebin...

Following the 'title' element, you can see the 'content' element you requested with the URI containing a node=export.

"content":{
"type":"text/html",
"src":"https://docs.google.com/feeds/download/documents/export/Export?id\u003d1mCHy6rcaqFoyZaJ-3qwRBZyirxnmew1m4CfEtOWAhjw\u0026v\u003d3"
},

once i authenticated to the playground , i used the following request for this example:
