How can I transform to a PDF file the result of an Api that returns an HttpResponseMessage in order to download it from ASP.Net Core.
Thank you.

What I have tried:

The Api generates a report in Crystal Reports in PDF format and returns it via an HttpResponseMessage. It could also return an array of bytes using a FileStream. How can I download the PDF file in the browser from an Asp.Net Core project?

Crystal Reports doesn't support .NET Core. Better look for alternatives.
