Follow these easy steps to create a direct download link from Google Drive:

Step 1: Upload your file to Google Drive

First, upload the file you want to share to your Google Drive account. If the file is already uploaded, you can skip this step.

Step 2 – Get the Share Link

Right click on the file in Google Drive.
Select "Get Link" from the context menu.
Make sure the link settings are set to "Anyone has the link" and the permissions are set to "Viewer."
Click "Copy link."
