Transferring a file from a network resource (XAML)
Purpose
Enable your app to transfer files to and from locations on the web. C#/C++ implementation options include HttpClient and Background Transfer.
Background Transfer is primarily designed for long-term transfer operations for resources like video, music, and large images. For a high-level look at Background Transfer, see Transferring data in the background. HttpClient is recommended for short-term operations involving transfers of smaller resources (i.e. a couple KB).
