I have been trying to add a PDF widget to a custom form and foloowed the instructions to use the Preview link of the Document in the url of the field. Yet, the url expires and when I try to view the PDF in the form in a live environment, it is showing an error message. Has anyone had any luck adding a PDF widget in their forms?

Hello, we attached the image/PDF to a portfolio in Workfront and use that URL.  Getting the right URL for the file is a little tricky - you have to load the image/PDF then go to document details then right click on the download button and copy link address.  You can't use the amazon link as it will expire.
