For some reason this doesn't work for zip files. The file is downloaded, but it is corrupted.

@AvaSpa you need to add header Accpet with value application/zip
The zip file is not corrupted, if you are saving in a file .zip, rename it to .html and you will see the exception or error details. In my case header accept: application/zip solve the problem.
