I found below solution working for me

 

// remoteFileUrl : link for file to be download

// MyFileRepository : Repo name

 

// result: BLOB
var result =  Resources["ContentLoaderFunctions"].LoadBinary({
ignoreSSLErrors: true /* BOOLEAN */,
url: remoteFileUrl /* STRING */,
});
 
 Things["MyFileRepository"].SaveBinary({
path: 'File1.docx' /* STRING */,
content: result /* BLOB */
});
