Thanks for the video Koushik.
How did you manage to download the file in that particular location? Where we need to add the path for this?

Getting the error as: TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'suggestedFilename'),
looks like suggestedFilename is not working for my code and also the file is getting download with alpha-numeric name. Please suggest how to resolve this.
