This gets asked at least every few months - as usual, the (appian supported) answer is that the best solution will be one using 2 clicks - one to generate, another to download.

There is no way from user input task to generate and download document on one click.
But, If you know that the user will download a particular set of data, I recommend the following approach when using a process model:
Before going to the user input task, generate the document using the a!exportDataStoreEntityToExcel() smart service.
Then, simply provide the user with a link to download the document.

if possible try to show the details in grid and show export to excel button.

As far as I know, there is no solution for generating and downloading the excel file in one click other than above solution
