I just need to be able to construct a VaultClientFile object for this version of the file. Then I would expect it to be able to return me the actual file from the Server. Its highly unlikely the file is in the cache, because its a very old version of the tree. I have to get it from the server.

I've got all the txn details from the history. Can that be used to construct a VaultClientFile? There isn't a constructor that can do it that I can see. And the elements I think I need to set are read-only.

Those APIs you listed. How do I specify to search for a Version of a File? They all seem to work on the latest view of the repository. This is the critical thing. FindFileRecursive will not find the file. But if I find something existing and set the Version correctly it will retrieve it as the contents of that folder. But I actually only know the verson at $ and the version of the file. I do not know the version of the parent folders so I can't use them.

What if the folder has also been removed in the latest view?

If I can just construct a VaultClientFile object for this file.

var rep = ServerOperations.client.ClientInstance.GetRepositoryAt(txid);
var clientFile = rep.Root.FindFileRecursive(id);

VaultClientFolder vcFolder = RepositoryUtil.FindVaultTreeObjectAtReposOrLocalPath(vaultPath) as VaultClientFolder;
VaultFolderDelta delta = ServerOperations.ProcessCommandGetBranchStructure(repId, vaultPath, vcFolder.ID, version, false);
vcFolder = new VaultClientFolder(delta, vcFolder.Parent);
