Setting up file-based download

The following steps provide an overview of the tasks required to set up file-based download, assuming that you already have MobiLink synchronization set up.

In most cases, you should use a download-only publication with your file-based download. Use a regular publication only when you need to do uploads with the same publication as you do file-based downloads.
