Dear community,
using a file attribute (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerapps/developer/common-data-service/file-attributes) it is possible to upload files to CDS, namely PDFs.
Is there any possibility to display a PDF file from CDS using Power Apps PDF Viewer Control https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerapps/maker/canvas-apps/controls/control-pdf-viewer or just PDF.js https://mozilla.github.io/pdf.js/.
What I am trying to achieve is a file preview in a model driven app.

Additional functionality can be added to model-driven apps by adding PCF controls. This PCF attachments control allows the user to open PDF files and read them in the browser.Link to PCF Control

Today I implemented a pdf preview in a model driven app based on a canvas app.
Here are the full steps:

It avoids the coded option of PCF controls.
