Download as csv in inline Visualforce page/Lightning component

Hi Salesforce Developers,
I have an inline Visualforce page on account detail page. And there is lightning component inside this VF page. There is some table of data and a "Download" button to download the given table as csv/excel. On button click, I tried to create CSV file using below code. 
var hiddenElement = document.createElement('a');
hiddenElement.href = 'data:text/csv;charset=utf-8,' + encodeURI(csv);
hiddenElement.target = '_self'; //
hiddenElement.download = 'ExportData.csv';  // CSV file Name* you can change it.[only name not .csv]
document.body.appendChild(hiddenElement); // Required for FireFox browser
hiddenElement.click(); // using click() js function to download csv file
This is working in classic but not in Lightning. Below error is shown in lightning.
Error shown in Lightning
Any help would be much appreciated.
