How to download Export instead of storing on server?

I have created an export header action on my table like this:
->headerActions([
  ExportAction::make()
    ->exporter(GroupOrderExporter::class),
])
->headerActions([
  ExportAction::make()
    ->exporter(GroupOrderExporter::class),
])


This downloads the export straight to
public/storage/filament_export/#/files
public/storage/filament_export/#/files
.

Is it possible that this would be downloaded to the users device as well, or instead? I don't see anything about this being documented in the Export action documentation:

Solution
Export actions work with queue unfer the hood, so with their nature they can't be executed immediately to download files.

You need to build your own custom action to achieve what you want, probably.
