We are trying to build an analytical app that has a zip file as an output. When running it on Gallery, we want the user to be able to download the zip file from Gallery vs. outputting the zip file to a shared drive location.

Update Render tool to output .zip file:
Publish to Gallery in order to download .zip directly:
