Problem with PDF visualization on deploy

I’m having a problem using a signed URL as the URL value for the PDF Viewer. It works in the dev/staging environment, but in deployment I can’t view the document; it downloads it instead of displaying it. I’ve already tried converting it to base6

pdf
pdf473×541 19.1 KB

path
path383×368 15.8 KB

4 to pass to the URL, but that doesn’t work either.

Hey @pedro_vitor :waving_hand:
I’ve just tried to replicate your setup, but I can’t reproduce. The PDF is not downloaded and is displayed on the PDF Viewer. Could you perhaps have set any settings on Supabase that could change the change in behavior? Something to do with a custom domain vs editor and staging?

Hi, how are you? Thanks for replying, I ended up finding the problem and it’s actually something external to the process; a flow in the retool that uploads this file wasn’t sending it as application/pdf but as application/octet-stream.
