   Hello tryp,

   Sorry for the late reply. I've just uploaded a PDF file to my put.io account
   and tried to retrieve its download url. Please take a look at the following
   example:

   In [7]: a = putio.Api("XXXXXXX", "XXXXXXX")
   In [8]: x = a.get_items(id = 17536822)[0]

   In [11]: x.get_download_url()
   Out[11]: u'http://put.io/download-file/140/17536822'

   In [12]: x.get_stream_url()
   Out[12]: u'
   http://frd04.put.io/stream-file/140/17536822/atk/bb21ae900ca5ee9521d73e4826286054ebb05901

   i can get both those urls but when i try and request them i get a 401.

   i tried adding the token you are menat to use for the video but that didn't work.

   is there a special token for the pdfs and files?

   Hi tryp,

   No, theres nothing special about pdfs but if you are getting a 401 it may be because of two reasons,
   i. token is wrong
   ii. the token is not for the requesting ip, we generate the token for the logged in user, and we don't allow the same request from another ip.

   hope this information helps debugging, please let me know if you have further questions.
