Hello,

I am trying to access a media uploaded on the backoffice via an Umbraco API Controller (because I will call the method from my frontend with Ajax). The media is a .xlsx file that I have to convert to a byte array (I think) in order to browse it and return the data I want to the client.

Here is the start of the method :

 public async Task<IList<ProfessionnelRepertoireViewModel>> GetRepertoireDesProfessionnels()
    {
        var content = _contentQuery.ContentSingleAtXPath("//homePage/espaceAcheteur/repertoireDesProfessionnels");
        var repertoireDesProfessionnels = content.Value<MediaWithCrops<File>>("professionalsDirectory");

        return new List<ProfessionnelRepertoireViewModel>();
    }

I successfully retrieved the file (which is repertoireDesProfessionnels) as a MediaWithCrops<File>. Now, I'm really lost on what to do next. I think I tried everything, IMediaService, MediaFileManager and then some but I can't wrap my head around what I should now.

Thanks for your help!
