Hi,
I have a requirement to provide just a link to download a standard file (File uploaded to a folder which is there under KnowledgeCenter)
What is the best way to do this.
When I review the Appian document I found this. a!documentDownloadLink( label, document, showWhen )
Now, to the document parameter, how can I provide a path of the document?

Harshit's answer is correct - the only relevant thing in play here is the appian Document ID. Paths in the Appian filesystem are purely notional and not at all relevant to downloading, other than for maintaining folder-based security for document access (i.e. a user would have to have at least "viewer" access to the folder a document is stored in, to be able to actually download it).
