I have a PDF file which is stored in a Shared folder whose path is “\IN-MHVL\Users\Vikit154\Documents\UiPath\Processes\Test\Response.pdf”. How can I display this document in a document viewer without the need of uploading the file into storage bucket?

Hi,

It is not possible to display it without uploading the document , if you are talking about apps here

3

Use PDF Viewer activity inside process

4

Okay. The document is sensitive hence I do not have the permission to upload it to the storage bucket.

5

Okay. I need a option to view the document within the Apps as per the requirement.

use start process activity

In the “FileName” property of the “Start Process” activity, provide the path to the PDF viewer executable. The exact path depends on the PDF viewer installed on the machine.
Example for Adobe Acrobat Reader:

“C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Acrobat Reader DC\Reader\AcroRd32.exe”

Run your UiPath workflow, and it will open the default PDF viewer with the specified PDF file.
