What algorithm is used to calculate this checksum?
I would like to caclulate it locally and compare to see it against the servers version.

Due to the changes of storage service, the checksum of the Entity Files will contain an ETag value, not an MD5 checksum. This value is used to verify if the copy of the file the user already have is the same as the one stored, before downloading it. And this document GetFileMetadata also describes that the checksum can be used to check if the file on the server has changed.
Files uploaded to entities’ profiles are stored in an Amazon S3 bucket, which uses the MD5 checksum value. Therefore, you can calculate the MD5 checksum for the file to verify its integrity.
