I was able to use signedUrl instead and that worked for my usecase. As a workaround.

But not sure why download token is missing

Download tokens are strictly a Firebase concept, supported mainly in the client SDKs. Server-side Node.js libraries like firebase-admin and @google-cloud/storage don't support it. Instead they support signed URLs.
