2) Configure or paste the below snippet in the UserWorkForm


function downloadFile(activityName, className, applicationName, fileName, fileType, rdname){
var suURL = new SafeURL(className+"."+activityName);
suURL.put('ApplicationName', applicationName); 
suURL.put('FileName', fileName); 
suURL.put('FileType', fileType); 
suURL.put('exportmode', fileType);
suURL.put('RDPg', rdname);
var formEle = document.createElement('form'); 
formEle.id = "download_file"; 
formEle.method = "POST"; 
formEle.action = suURL.toURL();
document.body.appendChild(formEle); 
formEle.submit(); 
document.body.removeChild(formEle); 

 

3) Pass the required parameters in the navigation controls to invoke the function (downloadFile)
4) Select the Allow direct invocation from the client or a service on the Security tab
