Hello I would like to send a message with the download function from laravel.

What I'm currently using:

return response()->download($pathToFile, $fileName);

What I tried:

return response()->download($pathToFile, $fileName)->with('success','Download started!');

It doesn't work.

In my view:

@if(Session::has('message'))
            <p class="alert alert-success">{{ Session::get('message') }}</p>
        @endif

use Session::has('success') instead of Session::has('message') in view. – abhishek kumar Nov 08 '19 at 11:43
@abhishekkumar Unfortunately not working as well. I tried withSuccess first. Don't work either. – Lars Flieger Nov 08 '19 at 12:01

Try using the global session helper instead, `session('message')` – Alec Joy Nov 08 '19 at 16:20
