I'm looking for a way to let users download a file directly, without having to click the "Open" button.

https://veodin2.sharepoint.com/:u:/g/Sales/EZdR8fpZ66NNqPvMdgN0gNYBXfi5vCRhMeKoPnkKuGJ4PQ?e=SFw9sv

It seems like other answers are not about public files / SharePoint Document Libraries only "Personal".

Original path:

https://veodin2.sharepoint.com/:u:/g/Sales/EZdR8fpZ66NNqPvMdgN0gNYBXfi5vCRhMeKoPnkKuGJ4PQ?e=SFw9sv

Replaced with download:

https://veodin2.sharepoint.com/:u:/g/Sales/EZdR8fpZ66NNqPvMdgN0gNYBXfi5vCRhMeKoPnkKuGJ4PQ?download=1

I replaced everything after the last ? with download=1. Then the link can be used in my code to pull the file down.

Note: This will work for .doc, .xlsx & .zip

Change your link directly to the file in the library:

https://veodin2.sharepoint.com/Sales/Shared%20Documents/SlideProof%2FVeodinSlideProof_Setup_v4.msi

  • This will work for authorized user, but not anonymous

  • This would be more useful if you tell how you changed the URL in the question to become this URL. That URL is full of scrambled characters and yours is actual english words and slashes.

If you append &download=1 to the end it will redirect you to the direct link.

Your link would become:

https://veodin2.sharepoint.com/:u:/g/Sales/EZdR8fpZ66NNqPvMdgN0gNYBXfi5vCRhMeKoPnkKuGJ4PQ?e=SFw9sv&download=1
