    Hi there, deco10, I hope you're doing well!

     

    I'm guessing you're using a shared link, is that correct? If not, then please feel free to clarify. 

     

    Does that shared link preview fine when you copy and paste it on a browser? Also, let me know if you use an API.
     

    Do you get a specific error message and does this happen with any other file type? 

     

    Keep me posted!
