If you want that file specifically as stored you can use `system.perspective.navigate(url="http://127.0.0.1:8088/system/webdev/Project_Name/abc.xlsx")`

it will automatically download it to your downloads folder.

You can use httpGet as well if you have a template and want to rename/edit the contents in some way.
