Small changes to not force download common files (images, pdf)
Idea shared by Thu Nguyen - 3/14/2020 at 4:47 AM
Proposed
We prefer to open common files in browser like PDF, Images file... rather than download it for "only quick preview purpose".

I want to open it in same window (or just a new tab for simpler).

Now each time I want to view file in attachment, I have to download it (action 1) and open it ( action 2), then finally I have to delete it (action 3).

Hi,
I want to have a quick preview in-browser tab.
Preview URL may be something like this:
https://view.officeapps.live.com/op/embed.aspx?src=[OFFICE_FILE_URL]
While your file contain a secret string that only allow onetime preview (to make sure it's secure and can't be share with other at 2nd preview)
OFFICE_FILE_URL=your-mail-domain.com/preview-file.aspx?filename=abc.jpg&onetime_preview_key=B6BJHaw3yFeN1fB6BJHaw3yFeN1f

Thank you.
