How to search PDF File by pages with reference number
Application Type
Mobile
Service Studio Version
11.54.81 (Build 63668)

Hello Everyone, 

I need your kind assistance. 

I am developing a mobile application which is to enable users to view their respective information in a PDF File using their reference numbers.

New PDF  files are to be uploaded monthly by the admin. The files are monthly and on yearsly basis. Each month is one PDF file. 

My humble Request 

Help with an idea on how to put the PDF into the mobile application in such a way that users can search for their respective pags using reference numbers. 

Kind Regards

Hello @Harrison ,

You can store the PDFs in cloud storage or DB (e.g., AWS S3 or Azure Blob Storage).  and create a database with reference numbers and the corresponding PDF file and page numbers. When a user searches for a reference number, the app will fetch the PDF and navigate directly to the page with that reference using a PDF viewer. 


This is an Entity diagram suppose PdfFile is in O11 DB so I created one too many relations between them

Thanks
