How to specify download location in Html using JavaScript

by

Whether the browser asks the user or not is down to the preferences in the browser.

You can’t bypass those preference, otherwise it would violate user’s security.

What you can do is make sure you’re sending the browser as much information as possible to help it make for a good user experience. If you’re not already doing so, be sure to include a Content-Disposition header in the response to the download request, including a filename field:

Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=test.csv
