Launch a document from link

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 173

Ok, I thought this would be easy, but I'm missing something.  I just want to launch a single document when a user clicks on a link.  I tried using the Launch(hyperlink to document) but it throws an error.  I don't need the whole document library, just one document which is a FAQ that a user can access for help.  Is there a simple way to do this that i'm missing?

 

Thanks,

Renee

    Hi @remariu,
    Is your document in Sharepoint document library. If yes, you can click on copy link option. You can use below syntax to open document using Launch - 
    Launch("<please add document URL?Web=1>", {}, LaunchTarget.New)
