File Reader

The File Reader web part is used to read documents with the Tracker enabled.


🖥️ Viewing Options

  • Provides a simple view option that opens the document in the embedded reader rather than the Office Online editor.
  • To change this option, disable the setting under Management > App > Enable/disable simple file viewer.

📑 Tracking Requirements

  • All documents and files to be tracked must be opened using the File Reader page:
    /SitePages/CTFiles/File-Reader
  • This is the native page used by My Reads.
  • Files viewed outside of the File Reader page will not be tracked.

🔎 Hidden Tracker Content

  • Hidden Tracker content must be displayed either:
    • In My Reads, or
    • Using the PnP Modern Search web part
  • Without this, tracking will not occur.
