downloadLinkQualifier
If you enable automatic link tracking using clickCollectionEnabled, the downloadLinkQualifier property helps determine the criteria for a URL to be considered a download link.
This property is a regex string. If the clicked URL matches this regex, xdm.web.webInteraction.type is set to "download". Links are also immediately classified as a download link if they include a download HTML attribute. If clickCollectionEnabled is not enabled, this property does nothing.
