How can I download maf files from gdc data portal?

Question

[Negatyvna]

How to download maf files from this platform? Can it only download this way or is there another solution?

query.maf.hg19 <- GDCquery(project = "TCGA-COAD", 
                             data.category = "Simple nucleotide variation", 
                             data.type = "Simple somatic mutation",
                             access = "open", 
                             legacy = TRUE)
