How can I download a file if I have its URL? Always open the file and shows its text. Code below doesn't work :(

I get the URL by consuming an API. I don't have the chance to receive in other way.

<a href="https://dominio.com/report.txt" download="reporte.txt" target="_blank">Descargar</a>

I guess you just need to define the download tag like this below,

<a href="https://dominio.com/report.txt" download="reporte.txt">
<strong>Descargar</strong>
</a>

<a href="/dominio.com/report.txt" download="reporte.txt" target="_blank">Descargar</a>
