Welcome to the Make community!
Instead of “Download a file”, try using the Google Drive “Get a Share Link” module:
Gets a share link for file or folder.
For more information, see Google Drive page in the Make Help Centre, which covers the following:
- Connect Google Drive to Make
- File/Folder
- File/Folder Access
- Google Shared Drive (For Google Workspace Users Only)
- File Revision
- Search For Files
- Possible problems
You should also take note of the following important details:
-
To connect an email ending in @gmail or @googlemail, you need to create a custom OAuth client in the Google Cloud Platform and get your project client credentials to establish the connection in Make.
-
You need to follow the procedure if you use an email address that ends with @gmail or @googlemail.
For more information, see these duplicate questions previously asked and answered by other community members, which may answer your question:

- Issue with 'image_url' Parameter in Instagram Module
Hope this helps! Let me know if there are any further questions or issues.
