Hi everyone,
I have one question, Is there any option to download the file(save on SharePoint library) from power apps to the local device?
I am not understanding the question. Have you uploaded a file via PowerApps which sits in a SharePoint Library and you want to be able to download this file?
Hi @phipps0218, Thanks for your response.
Yes, via PowerApps I uploaded the files and then showed the link in the gallery and now I want to download the selected links(SharePoint library files) from power apps to my computer.
If this was a form I would suggest showing the file in attachment component, however as this is in a gallery use the Download function:
Download("https://<site URL>/_layouts/download.aspx?SourceUrl=/sites/sitename/libraryname/filename.pdf")
Please Accept as Solution if it solves your question. Or just give it a Thumbs Up if it is helpful as can help others.

Hi @phipps0218 ,
By this formula also, the file is opening on the web, not on the local device.
Hi... did you happen to find a solution for this? The Download() that was suggested works the same as Launch(). I also want to be able to download files to a local drive, but have been unsuccessful in finding a way to do just that. If you've come across an answer for this, please let me know. Thank You !!!
