File Preview error

Report · Nov 16, 2020

The demo works fine. But when I try to use PDF Embed API to place my own PDF, I get a File Preview error. I see other posts on this forum with the same problem but can't find an answer. I appreciate any feedback. Thanks.

Hi, thanks for using PDF Embed API.

Would it be possible to share the link to the hosted website where you see the issue?

Also, do you see any error in the browser console panel? If yes, please share a screenshot of the error message so we can debug.

Thanks.

Hi Sumona, thank you so much for helping. Here is the link:

When I set up the PDF Embed API, I tried to make sure this domain is allowed.

FYI, this got solved by recreating the credentials directly at https://console.adobe.io/projects
