What is the content-type/MIME type for DCV connection files?

0

I'm writing a solution where a user will be able to download a DCV connection file in order to connect to an EC2 instance. I know exactly what needs to be in the DCV connection file and that it needs to have the .dcv extension.

However, I'm having trouble figuring out what value to use for the content-type response header of the download request. Has anyone stumbled across this particular magic string before? I feel like I should be able to do much better than application/octet-stream.

I think I might have just found this myself after poking around in my registry. Evidently the Windows native client will make a file association in there, which also includes a content-type attribute.

If anyone else is curious, the content-type for DCV connection files is apparently application/dcv.
