Filepicker does have a functionality like this, https://www.filepicker.com/documentation/file_ingestion/javascript_api/export?v=v1, when using export choose Send As Email option to send it as attachment.

Example code:

filepicker.exportFile(
    'https://www.filepicker.io/api/file/0lYRK93XSHKnKaQ6elRT',
    {
    mimetype:'image/jpeg',
    suggestedFilename: 'newFile'
    },
    function(Blob){
    console.log(Blob.url);
    }
);
