like harshit said, you can use a cardlayout.
You can try to use it like a button.

but instead of a dynamic link you can use a documentdownload link

And I told you. You CANNOT use a button to download the file.

My requirement is to use a button. If it were a link then there is a recipe available in the documentation.

Also, to download the file, you will need a link and not a button. Links cannot be applied to a button. You will have to use a component that supports adding like (eg. richTextDisplayField() or cardLayout())

It will remain a two-step process as the first step is to run the smart service so it can generate the CSV file and another step to download the file.
If somehow, you are able to generate this file without user needing to click on a button (like as soon as the user lands on a screen) or by combining it with any other action, then you will be able to use that single click for downloading.
