## Description

* * *

The login app now supports direct file downloads through shareable links, allowing you to share download links (for example, _[Login](https://jsmith.preprod.c8y.io/apps/public/login/index.html#/?download=78180895)_) without requiring a custom application. Previously, the login app could only redirect you to your default application after authentication. Now, when you open a download link, the login app authenticates you as usual (including single sign-on), then displays an inline download view showing the file name, a download button, and the app switcher instead of redirecting to your default app. After you download the file, a success message appears, and you can navigate to any app using the switcher or log out. This simplifies sharing files with users by eliminating the need to create custom applications for download functionality.
