A data transfer request continuously fails to update state due to an "empty" returned TransferURL from the Bestman service. It is unclear as to why the resulting TransferURL does not reflect an actual file. However, this condition should be handled better. Perhaps simply marking the individual request item as failed or invalid.

Bestman xfer request item record:
