# Download Public Card

Learn how to download the retrieved digital business card as a .vcf file. To do this, we first obtain a secure download link through a POST request. Once we have received the link, it remains valid for 90 seconds.

### Step 1: Request secure download link

<mark style="color:green;">`POST`</mark> `/v1/public/card/{UUID}/download`

#### Path Parameters

| Name                                   | Type   | Description |
| -------------------------------------- | ------ | ----------- |
| UUID<mark style="color:red;">\*</mark> | string | Card UUID   |

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="200: OK " %}
You will get a link on a successfull response, please redirect the user to this link to place the download:

## Download Apple Wallet

Becard offers the option to not only download `.vcf` files but also to save the digital business card directly in your Apple Wallet as a <mark style="color:purple;">`.pem`</mark> file. The process is identical as with `.vcf` files, except for the use of a URI that differs from the REST API URI.
