Hi Aquinn,

The best way to download a sharepoint file and get the last version of this without API is as follow:

  1. Sync your sharepoint to your local computer or Virtual Machine.
  2. Create a .txt file (Placeholder file) inside the folder, where the target file is. This is a trick to force Sharepoint to get the last version of the file.
  3. Get the last version of the target file.
  4. Finally you can delete the .txt file created (Placeholder file).

Hope helps you!
