Displaying a PDF in an IFrame

No-Code Platform
1

How would we go about displaying a PDF in an IFrame in a mini application?

I see, from the help, you need to:

  • Setup a Content Item Definitions item
  • Setup Common Context for the Source URL
  • Setup an object data item for the display/iframe??

Is there another step to link them together so when the URL if filled in, the iframe displays the PDF? Any steps/tips on this would be appreciated to get this working.

Thank you.

@claire.minnaar in lieu of pursuing this approach, I would recommend you first investigate using Inline Attachments if the PDF in question is going to be attached to the record you’re working on.

However if the PDF exists outside of Nextworld, my understanding is the approach discussed should work. My understanding is Nextworld considers using iFrames as a ‘last resort’ and only supports them in a limited fashion.
