<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex;">Jordi, you didn't mention the disposition there and if you don't specify 'inline' it'll default to attachment and prompt you to save rather than stream. <div>

The thing is so far there aren't any files, I have the contents of the file that should be downloaded, but from here to downloading an actual file I have no clue how to do it...</div>
<div><br></div><div>@Ken, I've used send_data in other parts of the app where Flex wasn't used and calling it caused a dialog to appear in order to save a file (something like send_data(@my_data, :filename => :whatever)). So, what I was expecting was send_data to start a file download.</div>

Hey,<br>
<br>
<tt>send_data</tt> sends binary data, not getting the expected results
doesn't tell me much, can you find out what you are getting back?
content-type etc... Also what are you expecting back, json, xml, a file?<br>
<br>
I recommend using curl or even a browser to talk to rails via http and
see if the data is what you expect your Flex app to receive as really
it's just acting as an API.<br>
<br>
Also for the invalid auth token just remove <tt>protect_from_forgery</tt>
from you application controller, or at least that is where you should
start as that is where the error is originating from I believe.<br>
<br>
Hope this gets you started.<br>

<div>I'm struggling to solve the following problem. We have an app
with a flex front end that displays some charts, each chart has a link
to download the data displayed in that chart. To do this I tried to
call a rails method that called send_data, but it didn't produce the
expected results. It'd be good if there was an easy way to do this
directly from Flex...</div>

</div>
<div>I've also been trying to follow the steps explained in this <a href="http://flexonrails.net/?p=5" target="_blank">article</a>,
but I'm getting an Invalid Auth token error...</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Does anyone have an idea?</div>
<div><br>
