I uploaded a pdf file to file manager here and selected plugin but when I open it on the emulator it says no pdf file. I missed something. I wish at this point not to have a link.

And, make sure there are no spaces, special characters, or caps in your file name. If that's all in place, make sure you do a Refresh All Data on your app in the Emulator to update the config information.

Once you have uploaded the document, hover your mouse over the filename, right-click and select "Copy Link" or whatever it says that's like that. Then use that link.
