I have a Contract field in account table. Field type is File. Is it possible to show this file in on a page (iframe, pdf viewer...)?

If I add the field to a form and use it in portal, document is always downloaded.

URL: https://site-123456.powerappsportals.com/File/download.aspx?Entity=account&Attribute=cr4c5_contract&Id={{guid}}

I don't want that. Instead just show it.

Hi @Simply_ti_Red ,
So what you would need to do is download the file via web API (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-pages/configure/file-column#web-api) and then use some 3rd party pdf viewer to show the content on the page (depending on the library you might also need to convert received file to base64 etc).
