I have a requirement wherein I need to download multiple files (say 30 files) at a button click to the local system

I have seen posts to try Zip plugins to add documents to zip and unzip the same.

Please can someone suggest a way on how i can achieve that on a button click the files are downloaded to my local system.

The number of files are dynamic.

I suggest to use the search function. This has been discussed many times already.

How strong is that "requirement"?  This sort of thing is 10x easier (at least) to do once you accept using 2 clicks instead of 1 - the first click to execute generation of the file collection / zip file which can then populate on-form as a download link, then the second click to actually download.  There may be some tricks / workarounds that allow one click instead, but honestly they're complicated enough that it becomes not worth it.
