Java Webservices Send the CSV file attachment as Response

Question

I want to send the CSV File as attachment in Java Webservices Response. Can this be done. Please provide the steps if it is possible

Answer 1

Set the Content-Disposition header on the response. For example, the headers:

Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="filename.csv"

...will cause a browser to download the HTTP response entity as a file named "filename.csv". You probably want a MIME type too, which will look like this:

Content-Type: application/csv
Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="filename.csv"
