MicrosoftRoadmap for PDF reader in Microsoft Edge
Anything regarding IRM documents stored in SharePoint? I had a Microsoft case opened and they closed it stating it's a product development issue. They said you've not allowed SharePoint IRM documents to be opened yet.
- Aditi_GangwarHey Doug,
We recently made a fix in Edge 088, so it should be working now.
If the issue still persists, can i connect with you over DM?Hello Aditi_Gangwar. I tried it again and I'm still getting the "Need Permissions" error when trying to open an IRM protected document in SharePoint using Edge. I'm running Edge version: 88.0.705.81
Update: I've also tried Canary Version 90.0.810.0
Same issue here. It seems that the users that are external users (guests) are unable to open the PDF files even though they have edit rights on the files. All other Office files work for them but PDF files say "Need Permissions". Other internal users that are in the edit group are able to open the PDF in Edge without issue. The guests users are in the exact same group and have the same permissions as others internal users. But it seems the guest users only get the "Needs Permissions", internal users do not get this error.
Doug if you have guests users, do all users (members and owners) get the same error as well or only guests ?
Aditi_Gangwar Absolutely. Let me try it out. I'll reply back here with my result (working or not working)
