Want to add a download URL (using a file in sharepoint) into powerpoint

Hi there.

 

I'm trying to add a document from sharepoint into a button added in powerpoint where:

- when i click on the button, it will download a copy of the file into the computer

 

Should not:

- open the file on browsers

- open the file via msword

 

I've already tried adding "&web=0" and "&download=0" and it does not work when the url is used in a button from powerpoint.

 

Is there any way you can help me with this one? 🙂

 

Thanks in advance!

    Hi,
    Try to use the below url
    https://<tenantname>.sharepoint.com/sites/<site collection title>/_layouts/15/download.aspx?SourceUrl=/sites/<site collection title>/<file path with the library name>

      Thanks for your reply, and tip. But I've already tried that method too. It sends me to a non existent page.
