Hi there,

I have a data collection with documents inside of it and I am looking to download / open these documents.

I am trying to open the document by using wixLocation but it wont work at all?

How can I open the document with code?

My current code:

import wixLocation from 'wix-location';
import wixData from 'wix-data';
let documents;

$w.onReady(function () 
{
    $w('#PageTitle').text = $w('#MainPage').title;

 //getting all documents from the collection
    wixData.query("Downloads")
        .find()
        .then((results) => {
 //setting the results to the variable declared above
            documents = results.items; //see item below
            console.log(documents);
        })
        .catch((err) => {
 let errorMsg = err;
        });
});

let selectedOption;

export function BtnDownload_click(event, $w) 
{
    wixLocation.to(documents[selectedOption].doc);
}

export function DownloadsList_change(event) 
{
    selectedOption = $w('#DownloadsList').selectedIndex;

    console.log(selectedOption);
}

Best regards,

Hello Scott

the problem seems to be in wixLocation.to(documents[selectedOption].doc)
make sure of the field’s key in the collection that you linking to.
