Download Excel from SharePoint

I'm trying to let user download an excel file from SharePoint using a button.
I have tried using Power Automate to achieve, but it would require gateway configuration. Any recommendations on how to achieve it?

 

Thanks!

    Hi Anonymous 

     

    Is this for users in your organisation?  Or users outside your organisation?

     

    If it is inside then as long as the file is shared so that peoepl in your org can either open it or edit it:

     

    Then you can configure a button such that Action is On, its Type is Web URL and the URL is the link to the file on Sharepoint

     

     

    If it's for people outside your org, then you may find that restrictions prevent this:

     

    You'd need to speak to your Sharepoint admin to resolve that.

     

    Regards
