Downloading file from DataURL in JavaScript

Question

From this string we get from DataURL, what's the best way to download this as a file?

So far what I got was using a basic window.open("myDataURL");, but I'm not able to change the file name in this way.

window.open('data:application/msword;base64,0M8R4KGxGuEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
             PgADAP7/CQAGAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACAAAANQAAAAAAA
             AAAEAAANwAAAAIAAAD+////AAAAADQAAABsAA/',
             '_blank','height=300,width=400');

I was wondering if there's any way to handle this data properly.

Answer 1

you can add a download attribute to the anchor element. sample:

<a download="abcd.zip" href="data:application/stream;base64,MIIDhTCCAvKg........">download</a>
