@8973619 I found your awesome codepen Adobe Embed API displaying a PDF file from Dropbox

 

I've beed trying to do this and have been unsuccessful. I did the following:

 

1. Put PDF into Dropbox Directory

2. Created share link in Dropbox to folder with html and .js files

3. Created Credentials in Adobe API with URL dropbox.com 

4. Edited your JS Example to add my credential/key from adobe api and the shared link from Dropbox

5. Open link in browser to folder or html file

 

Im sure Its something obvious but what am I doing wrong? It displays the html code in preview in the browser and not the html view.....

Disregard that question. I realized you cannot display HTML in Dropbox. I moved files to a web server and they display great. I do have another question..... I am duplicating the file prior to sending to client. I would like them to be able to comment and save over the file they are viewing directly on the server. How would I implement this?
