GET/v1/download/{conversion_id}

Download a converted invoice document by conversion ID

Stream a previously converted invoice document back to the caller. The response `Content-Type` is `application/xml` for XML outputs or `application/pdf` for Factur-X/ZUGFeRD PDF/A-3 outputs, and a `Content-Disposition` header suggests the filename. **Lifetime:** documents are cached for 24 hours after a successful `POST /v1/convert`. After expiry the endpoint returns `404 NOT_FOUND` and the caller must re-run the conversion. Required scope: `einvoice:convert`.

Authentication

Requires API key via X-API-Key header.
