Hello.
I have connected a Sharepoint document as a data source.
And I have the folder/file displayed in the gallery, but when I click on the file, it opens in the browser.

I would like to open it in adbe acrobat app, not in the browser.
I entered the following code in Onselect and there was no error, but it does not open in the app.

Launch("acrobat:" & "https://www.sharepoint.com/sites/mySite/" & ThisItem.'full path ')

You can default the open behavior in your SharePoint site to by default open files in Desktop Apps instead of in the browser, but this applies to Office docs (Word, Excel, PPT, etc.) rather than PDFs.

PDFs open according to the default app set in Windows; so if it is opening in Browser, that's because your user's default app for PDFs is the browser. They need to change their Windows defaults to change this behavior.
