Hi @Ardelle Froeliger,
If you want to load a bitstream to a board, you would first need to create a project for it in the appropriate Xilinx software (usually Vivado for Digilent's current board offerings), and then click on the appropriate in-software button to generate a bitstream. If you made a project with only HDL you could follow this guide to program the board with the bitstream, https://digilent.com/reference/programmable-logic/guides/getting-started-with-vivado, otherwise if you are using a block design flow this guide would be more helpful for you: https://digilent.com/reference/programmable-logic/guides/getting-started-with-ipi.
Let me know if you have any questions about this.
Thanks,
JColvin
