Launch Print Dialog

I need to implement the ability for users to launch a print dialog from my app. The page has a print button as shown in the attached screenshot, when the user clicks on this button, I need to launch a print dialog to print an external PDF provided via a dynamic link from the page’s data type.

Does anyone know how I can achieve this, I have evaluated a couple of paid and free plugins without success.

I see lots of plugins that can help your cause.

If you’re talking about pdf’s that are from your database, this one does exactly that:

Thank you but this response has zero value, I have tried more than 5 of those plugins.

Thank you very much @lantzgould , the plugin you referenced is close however, my PDF files actually come from a blob storage. Firebase Storage to be specific, so the same origin domain check prevents me from using it. I will keep exploring. I am very surprised at the limits of Bubble in basic use cases.

You’ll need to create an API that can query and read the file before you can create a download link.

You can use the Server Side Download (plugin) and a Firebase API connector to get the results you’re looking for.
