Hi Maruthi,
1. Create a property to hold the URL of the document.
2. Create a button or link or image and in properties, select actions tab
3. Click on add an event and select event as 'Click'. Click on Add an action for the event and under Launch select 'Open URL in window' as below
4. The action can be configured by selecting 'Use Alternate Domain Checkbox' and setting the URL property in the Alternate domain URL as shown below.

Hi Maruthi,
You can follow the below steps:
Create a text type property (MyURL).
Create a Data Transform to set the "URL" which displays the document to the text property.
Add the above Data Transform in the Flow Action which calls the section. The section contains a link to launch the URL.
The section's configuration. By click on the link (you can also use button), you can launch the URL specified in the "Open URL in Window" action.

In my example, I used Data Transform to set the property. There are other ways to do it. for example, use activity (Property-Set method) to set it.

Thank you very much Susan Liu. But instead of DT we can directly provide the link in "Alternate Domain URL" ?? Will it works ?
