Hi again, I fixed that issue, but I have one more question that I couldn't find answer for.
filesDownload or filesGetThumbnail returns object with fileBinary property. I can't in any way I tried convert that data to image.
Most of the time I get this exception
DOMException: Failed to execute 'btoa' on 'Window': The string to be encoded contains characters outside of the Latin1 range.
