PdfViewer1 cache issue

Posted on by sospnicotse 6

Hi,

I have customized a SharePoint list form in which I've inserted a pdfviewer control.

Items in this list always have one PDF attached.

I followed those steps to view the pdf file in the pdfviewer control : https://wonderlaura.com/2018/08/30/powerapps-pdf-viewer/

It works but I have an issue : when I open the second item of the list the attachment of the fisrt item appears first then the pdfviewer load the second item pdf file 😞

This is very confusing for the users...

Thanks

Sebastien

    Hi @sospnicotse ,

     

    Is this happening every time? Have you checked with other web browsers/devices? Please try to test and see if this is related to the specific browser or device.

     

    Regards,

    Mona

    I have the same issue.  I'm using pdf viewer to read .docx documents from a SharePoint library via a collection.  I refresh the library but the document showing is the cached document.  If a document is modified the mods don't get shown even though the SharePoint library data source is refreshed.  If I clear the browser cache the viewer then shows the latest version of the modified documents.
