you can easly get pdf file using airtable:

steps:-
1 get the column in which all the pdf files are stored.
2 in when got column event set a label to response content.
3 now you will get a list in which there will be a link to your pdf.
4 use select list item to get the pdf link and then you can set that pdf link to webviwer and you will directly see your pdf.

if you dont understand then post the image of reponse content i will help ya

As I have learned and saw in Taifun’s tutorial you can not open PDF file directly in web viewer.
And @tech_techhuman this is for you only if @manishthetechguy method works:

no need of rest api. airtable component will work as a rest api and you will get the response in json list in which you need to get the value of url.

First upload to Google Drive and then paste the URL link to Airtable. This requires twice the data entry. So it is easier to upload PDF File directly on Airtable. Unable to get PDF file information uploaded to Airtable.
Thank you for your advice, instructions.

My thanks for your suggestions. But I couldn’t finish it myself. So I did it from Google Drive URL Connection. Technically you are an expert. If possible, please state the solution.
Thankyou
