If you have access to an already existing file, just link to it. You can specify what the downloaded file name will be like this:

    Download as JSON

If needed, you could also write out the dataURI as well

 //Get the file contents
 var txtFile = "test.txt";
 var file = new File(txtFile);
 var str = JSON.stringify(JsonExport);

 //Save the file contents as a DataURI
 var dataUri = 'data:application/json;charset=utf-8,'+ encodeURIComponent(str);

 //Write it as the href for the link
 var link = document.getElementById('link').href = dataUri;

Then just give the link an ID and a default href

    Download as JSON
