Windows Defender Application Guard - opening files

Question

How do I configure Windows Defender Application Guard in order to open Microsoft Office files?

The only way I have found so far is to enable the policy '

Allow files to download and save to the host operating system from Windows Defender Application Guard '.

Is there a way to open MS Office files within the WDAG session without saving the to the host operating system?

Many thanks

Simon
