**Which product are you using?**

**Detailed description of issue**  
When trying to load a test pdf from azure storage blob, the server url is there.

**Expected behaviour**  
It was working fine in an older version.

**Does your issue happen with every document, or just one?**  
This is happening with the web viewer for all pdfs

**Code snippet**  
WebViewer({

licenseKey: ‘irld89CMAcwPvMz4SJzz’,  
}, this.viewer1.nativeElement).then(instance =\> {  
debugger;  
this.wvInstance = instance;  
this.wvInstance.annotManager.setCurrentUser(this.user)  
var files = this.dialogConfig && this.dialogConfig[‘pdfFiles’];  
if (files && files.files && files.files.reorderIndexes) {  
try {  
let reorder = JSON.parse(files.files.reorderIndexes)  
if (Array.isArray(reorder)) {  
this.reorderData = files.reorderData = reorder  
}  
}

}  
this.createHeader(this.dialogConfig.config.previewUrl, files);

Could you please clarify your issue?

I just tested it with the above WebViewer constructor and was able to retrieve the PDF:
