File links - Downloaded or Previewed
Hello, I have a webpage where I have hyperlinked some PDF files within a Box Folder. Though all the PDFs are in the same area and in similar sizes, a few of them of being redirected to being directly downloaded and others open straight to a Box preview page.
How do I get all files to open up in a Box preview page?

Hi Salena,
Welcome to the Box Community!
Files will be directly downloaded if you use a 'Direct link' instead of a regular "shared link" so you'd want to make sure you are creating Shared links to link in those hyperlinks and not direct links.
A Direct link is a web address (URL) that links directly to a file without using Box Preview. This is different from a regular shared link, which brings users to the Box Preview screen for the shared file.
To learn more on how to create or generate a proper Shared link of a file/ folder, please take a look at this article: https://support.box.com/hc/en-us/articles/360043697554-Configuring-Individual-Shared-Link-Settings
Thanks for reaching out and please let me know if you have any questions!
Regards,
