Is there a way to incorporate PDFs (single page and multipage)?
If not, it would be a great enhancement
I just save the pdf as image files, and then create a story map with each of the pages. Embed the story map to the experience builder app.
I'm trying to figure out how to do this with ArcGIS Portal. I tested adding a pdf document to the site and sharing to public but it still gets blocked by both Chrome and Edge, even after downloading recommended browser extensions. However, when I test the same thing on AGOL, the embedded pdf loads on experience builder just fine. Is it something I'm missing here?
the website is called https://www.docdroid.net/the free version works OK, but the adds for anime/henti may be enough to spring for the paid versionyou can also use O365 Sway to embed into the EB. if PDF formatting is important consider inserting a download link to the PDF from a document library in sharepoint. This all depends on global admin sharing policies.
this is possible... some googling may lead you to PDF hosting sites where the URL and HTML code work in the experience builder. I don't know why some sites are prevented from this functionality while others work. I couldn't even add a google sites page as an imbedded url. i think its odd that the PDF and Web site imbedding is allowed with the story builder apps but not in the same way with Experience Builder. I am trying to persuade our team to use Experience Builder rather than WIX for some project overviews. luckily i have found a solution (hopefully not short term) that will keep the team from jummping ship on me...
I am trying a similar thing as Matthias. I have multi-page PDFs that are specific to each panel/entry. Would be great if the user had the ability to have the PDFs open up within the app rather than a new tab. Attached is a clip from something else that we created (not in Experience Builder)
Hi David,
My pdf files are not stored under AGOL.Here is a video of what I would like to do with Experience Builder.With the Beta, I used an iframe code contained in a field.But if it were possible to put the URL of a PDF file in the Embed widget, it would be easier.

Hi Brian and Matthias,
You can view a PDF from Feature Info if it is stored as an attachment. Another option is to use the button widget and link it to the PDF with the URL. I am curious to hear what are your requirements for PDF?
Thanks,
David

I tried those as well and it didn't work for me.
Where do log "Ideas" for Experience Builder?
I tried different solutions, but unable to view a PDF with ArcGIS Experience Builder.An iframe in Feature Info widget or a link in Embed widget does not work ...If anyone knows a solution, I'm interested
