Hi Community,
I have an excel file that is accessible over URL and I have to create a Catalog Item.
When link provided in the Description of Catalog Item is clicked, the file should be downloaded in new window without being opened in the browser.
Kindly let me know how to achieve this functionality.
Thanks and Regards
Jagbir Singh

Hi,
You can embed link in HTML of description part, use download attribute.
<a href="URL here" download="file_name_of_your_choice">Download attachment</a>
Thanks

Hi,
You can insert/add the URL to the catalog item description. It will be open in new tab by selection target as New window (_blank).
For reference-
Thanks,
