I've seen this question How can I create download link in html?. One solution to create a link for download is using this <a href="link/to/your/download/file" download="filename">Download link</a>. However, if the data source is mongodb, what href should be set?

You have to give the path of the file where it's available in the database. Let's say your file is http://www.w3schools.com/images/myw3schoolsimage.jpg so in the response where you have to return the location you can put
<a href="http://www.w3schools.com/images/myw3schoolsimage.jpg" download>
[<img border="0" src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/S7CZv.jpg" alt="W3Schools" width="104" height="142">][1]
