Hi Wan Ariff,

when using “Export to Excel” with a FileDocument, you must commit the file before the “Download File” activity.

Otherwise, the file only exists temporarily in memory and won’t be accessible after the download. The correct microflow setup should be:

Generate Excel → Commit File → Download File.

This ensures the file is saved properly and available for download. Also, make sure the user has access to the FileDocument entity and that the microflow ends cleanly.
