Hi Jason, Thank you for responding. I solved this by implementing a temporary link system in my model. This would generate a unique key which points to a foreign key which references the data I want. When the url with this foreign key is clicked, the pdf is generated on the fly and presented as a FileResponse. On the javascript side, what I do is generate the link when the button is clicked, and insert a Download button in the DOM and the href is set to the link presented by django.
