Download File Action for Buttons, Images, and SVGs

The Download File Action turns any button, image, or SVG in your Sparkforge funnel or website into a one-click download. Pick a file from your media library, set a custom filename, and visitors get the asset without redirects or external storage.

What it does

Attach an asset (PDF, image, video, ZIP, and more) to a button, image, or SVG. Click triggers an instant download. No third-party file hosts, no link copying, no leaving the page.

Best practices

• Use descriptive filenames like Brand_Name_Checklist.pdf for branded downloads
• Compress images and videos to keep download times short
• Use clear CTAs like "Download Recipe PDF" so users know what they get
• Only link to final versions. Replacing or deleting media library files breaks saved download links.
