Viewing an external linked pdf url in a website tab instead of downloading

https://fdotwww.blob.core.windows.net/sitefinity/docs/default-source/roadway/fdm/2020/2020fdm124qaqc.pdf?sfvrsn=cf80ed74_2

 

I'm trying to get the hyperlink above to display in a tab and not download the pdf.  I've tried the website tab, but when you nav to that tab, it downloads the pdf.  How do I get it to simply display in Teams as opposed to download?

  • Hi Rmccowan

    I have reproduced, and it seems to - as you say - automatically download.

    Does the file need to be hosted? You can always download it, upload it into the Files Tab of the team and then pin it as a PDF, or is it important it stays where it is?

    Best, Chris
