To retrieve simple data such as textual data or binary data from a standard HTTP or HTTPS web server, use the UnityWebRequest.GET
call. This function takes a single string as an argument, with the string specifying the URL from which data is retrieved.
This function is analogous to the standard WWW constructor:
WWW myWww = new WWW("https://www.myserver.com/foo.txt");
// ... is analogous to ...
UnityWebRequest myWr = UnityWebRequest.Get("https://www.myserver.com/foo.txt");
UnityWebRequest
and sets the target URL to the string argument. It sets no other custom flags or headers.DownloadHandlerBuffer
