Hi @AhmedAlnaqa 

Good question.

The File expects a public direct download link to the file.

 

Tool to help you understand the correct URL to use: https://sites.google.com/site/gdocs2direct/

the tools is not working at all!! 

I found a Direct URL option and it’s download the file directily when I use the provied link in the below picture.  

I try to change the file like this 

but still have error :

WordPress ran into an issue. Error code 500: Sorry, you are not allowed to upload this file type.
