Hi,
I manage to resolve this by adding header add_header Content-Disposition "attachment;"; to the external pdf link:

code in Nginx:

     location /download {
           proxy_pass              https://www.domain.com/download/;
           proxy_cookie_path /download /download;
           add_header Content-Disposition "attachment;";
           proxy_set_header Cookie $http_cookie;
     }

Hi!
You can try to customize the cuba.web.viewFileExtensions property
(see documentation)

PDF files are opened in browser by default.

Thanks for sharing, Irina~

My senario is that we provide two button: one is view and another is download, which provide different behavior.

Anyway this may help Zgar’s case :slight_smile:
