Just save the file as "abc.pdf". It should work.

Hi
This will help you on how to integrate REST service into PEGA https://www.pegaxchange.com/2016/10/16/pega-7-connect-rest/.
However, it all depends on "Content-Type" attribute in response headers which decides how the response needs to be rendered.
Thanks

There is only following options available for content-type
application/xml
application/json
text/plain
text/html
text/xml
Which one to choose for pdf. Is there any pdn article for returning pdf in Rest Service. I need to send the generated letter to Angular UI..

Hi Sridhar,
I changed Content-Type to Application/PDF . Now popup is coming for PDF file but unable to set filename in the popup window.
How to set the filename ? I used postman for sending request to Pega.
Please see the screenshot attached.
