I don’t have an iOS12 device anymore, but if I enter the URL in Safari it asks to download the file, and I think this is a new behaviour in iOS13… and probably that’s why the Webviewer is no longer displaying the PDF, it asks for a download, but the command fails and stop !Īs I mentioned, I use the same scheme to see JPG file and it’s working great.ĭo you think we can find a solution ? My understanding is that we can have the server stream the PDF to a container field ? How about having a table with a single record with a container field (not global) and have a server side script to insert the PDF and then switch the FMGo to that layout ? Prior to iOS13, I had a Webviewer and the URL was a $$variable it contains the same URL as the remote network and it was possible to see it in the Webviewerīut with iOS 13, it’s no longer the case. and job_number are variable that are calculated based on the current record.įMA Local network, I open URL and the PDF opens in Acrobat.įMA Remote network, I use an HFS file server and I can open using URL and it will open in the user’s browser. They are contracts and stored //server_1/data/contract//job_number.pdf Those documents are used by another application and they cannot be hosted on inserted into a container field. I have my scanned documents on my server, not on the same server as my FMS. Two things, I really don’t get your post how to do it at all and I might not have explained my problem correctly.

By “web server,” I’m referring to the web server of the FileMaker server, which is Apache for MacOs and IIS for Windows.
