Hello thanks for your reply.

 

i've found the solution after i read the REST documentation and the links you gave to me.

i'll post the solution here just in case someone else need it:

 

Your SMO needs to return Base64 String and then use the Get File From Content function in context browser

don't forget to set the file format in the function input (File Name).

 

cheers
