Details

Two new methods have been added to the Vercel Sandbox SDK to simplify the file retrieval process.

Previously, retrieving files (CSV reports, images, PDF invoices, etc.) generated within an isolated VM in Vercel Sandbox across the network boundary required users to manually handle and pipe streams, which was cumbersome.

With this update, the following methods are now available:

  • downloadFile(): Seamlessly stream and download a generated report to the local environment.
  • readFileToBuffer(): Retrieve a file into a buffer with a single call, without needing to wire up a separate stream.

These methods automatically handle the underlying stream operations internally, allowing developers to easily extract outputs from within the sandbox without complex stream configuration.
