I have a canvas app with a screen that shows a list of files associated with the data currently being viewed. Those files are stored in a SharePoint library that the app user does not have access to. In order to view the file list, upload additional files, or delete files, the app sends a request to a Power Automate flow, which then uses an HTTP action to call another flow. This second flow then performs the requested CRUD operations.
I have the "create," "update," and "delete" parts of CRUD working fine, but not the "read" part. On the screen, there is a gallery in which each item is a file in the list. In each item is a button that should allow the user to download the respective file. I can build a pair of flows that will read and send the requested file data to PowerApps, but I can't find a way to then have PowerApps save the file to the user's default download folder (or any folder). Once my flow sends the file data to PowerApps, how do I instruct PowerApps to save that file to the user's computer?
I have looked into the Download() function, but I don't think this will work, because I need to have a URL that is accessible to the user. Due to security reasons, the SharePoint library containing the files cannot be made directly accessible to the users, which is why I'm using a set of flows to accomplish this. I want PowerApps to save the file that it receives from Power Automate directly.
