Hi,

Could you please help us by clarifying our below query regarding REST APIs of Salesforce Mobile SDK for iOS. Thanks in advance.

In one of our apps, we are planning to use a new feature of iOS 7: Background transfer service. We would like to use the Salesforce REST APIs to download files from SFDC in background using this service.
Could you please let us know if there is a way to achieve this using Salesforce REST APIs.

Note:
To download files in foreground, we currently use Salesforce REST API, SFRestAPI:send:delegate. I understand that it internally uses NSURLConnection through RestKit framework. We would like to move the file downloading part from foreground to background. The background transfer service of iOS 7 uses NSURLSession API instead of the current NSURLConnection API.

Regards,
Ravi
