That function should return an array of documents ids so you then need to either construct a grid or list of link fields. Look at the a!applyComponents function recipes.

I tried various alternatives but in vain. Can you please confirm if the current usage is correct:
a!linkField(
                    label: "ABC",
                    links: {a!applyComponents(
                    function: fn!a!documentDownloadLink
                    array: 1 + enumerate(length(getdocumentsfromfolder(rf!XXX_fol,true()))))})

where XXX is the folder from where documents needs to be picked.

I am getting the following error:
Invalid function a!linkField (not available as [])

What version are you using? a!applyComponents and a!documentDownloadLink are only available in 7.4
This will work for you:
a!linkField(
label: "Documents",
links: a!applyComponents(
function: a!documentDownloadLink(
document: _,
label: "Download"),
array: getdocumentsfromfolder(cons!IMAGE_DIR, true)
)
)

My mistake. I was looking at 7.4 documentation. I have Appian 7.3 with me.

Ok, in 7.3 you just need to use the standard apply() function but build your own rule in place of a!documentDownloadLink that builds your URL: http://<SERVER_AND_PORT>/suite/doc/ri!docId

Tim, when i tried this i dont get results, what is the _, mean after document: will it loop taking the value for array list
a!linkField(
                              label: "Documents",
                              links: a!applyComponents(
                              function: a!documentDownloadLink(
                              document: _,
                              label: "Download"),
                              array:rf!generatedDocumentList
                              )
                    )

I just see the word document, but the label: part its no parsing the name. _ does not seem to work in label: but it works in document : _ , when i click it downloads 2 different docs as per the docIds, i want to show the name of the file.
=a!linkField(
label: "Documents",
links: a!applyComponents(
                    function: a!documentDownloadLink(
                              document: _,
                              label:document(_,"name")                                        ),
          array: {5262,5258}
)
                    )
