How to load PDFs host with google drive or dropbox ?

[James]

Good day,

I have been using the PDF viewer for the last few days.

I am just struggling to load PDFs hosted with google drive or Dropbox.

string URL = "https://www.syncfusion.com/downloads/support/directtrac/general/pd/GIS_Succinctly353717706.pdf"; loads perfectly but

string URL = "https://drive.google.com/file/d/1RaM7eOiwLG3dbawaOFsQoR_nl9jtUpPK/view?usp=sharing"; doesn't load.
