Revised download file from power app || download file instead open in new tab

Revised download file from power app || download file instead open in new tab
In this video, we will make the download functionality in powerapps, where whenever user click on the button it will download the file into the local system instead opening the file in new tab. In the last video for the same topic, we have observed that approach was working fine in Chrome Browser but not in Edge, so here this will work in both the browsers without any issue.
Paste the url inside the launch or download
-siteurl--/_layouts/download.aspx?sourceurl= ---siteurl-----Folder path----

Glad it helped

[@AkashNandikol-v2w]

Great thanks ❤ this approach works

Thanks for your comment❤

[@geralddahl9159]

Thank you for sharing this. Do you think there is a way to make the launch button code dynamic so that the correct path is defined for different file locations, in case the button was inside a gallery that had multiple items?

[@classypowerapps5169]

Yes, Dynamics code can be passed via variables, when i was doing the POC, i used the environment variable value inside the launch function to download the multiple files based on the selection of file. I was passing dynamic paths into my variable.

Hello!
Thank you for sharing this great solution!
I'm facing a situation where I'm downloading my excel file and only the header and first row are showing up, but if I navigate to the excel file web, next downloads are ok. Did you faced something similar?

[@classypowerapps5169]

Please check the logs, if the first download is taking all rows or not !

[@sohitthakur6660]

Superb, thanks for this
I faced this same situation also 😊

How to implement this for PowerAutomate one drive personal links

[@mdhidayat5706]

Awesome, it works, thank you for sharing~

[@LuisHerrera-jl3tx]

How could I do this, but for a specific version? I mean doing a direct download on a hyperlink with "_vti_history/versionID

[@aafreensultana1835]

Can this be done for onedrive too?

[@classypowerapps5169]

onedrive will just need the shareable file url in download function and it will work.

[@sohitthakur6660]

Hi Bro
I am having doubt if we are storing file in one drive , could you please elaborate then what will be the URL we need to pass I tried same , but couldn't work

[@classypowerapps5169]

onedrive is bit easier as compared to sharePoint.

[@sohitthakur6660]

@@classypowerapps5169 bro I tried to pass the URL but couldn't work ,it is not downloading it is just opening in new tab

[@SandyZhao-Sunshine]

Thank you for sharing this. It is already perfect, but when clicking the button, the screen flickers, a new tab opened, and then it closed by itself. do we have a solution to solve this slash problem?

[@classypowerapps5169]

umm, need to look into it.

[@ramyagandhi5251]

I want to download from onedrive but it is not working

[@classypowerapps5169]

Make sure you are using the right download path.
