So far as I know, whether to open the file depends on the client browser. I have encountered a browser who could not read the pdf and download it directly. So once you set the file to have the "GET" property it is upon the receiver to open it or simply save it in directory. Moreover, the "open pdf" only happens after the file is already fully downloaded in Temporary directory set by the browser.
open excel file in browser instead of download

You have to download the file type once, then right after that download, look at the status bar at the bottom of the browser. Click the arrow next to that file and choose "always open files of this type". DONE.
Google, as of now, cannot open w/out saving. As a workaround, I use IE Tab from the Chrome Store. It is an extension that runs IE - which does allow opening w/ out saving- inside of the Chrome browser application.
I think the question was about to open a local file directly instead of downloading a local file to the download folder and open the file in the download folder, which seems not possible in Chrome, except some add-on mentioned above.
When the bottom left box appears it will contain an arrow; click on it and choose the option "Always open files of this type". Going forward it will open the file instantly instead of the small box appearing to the left and you having to click on it to open. You will have to do it just once for various files such PDF, Excel 2010, Excel 2013 Word, ect.
You would need to develop your own file handler. Otherwise, it will be handled by SharePoint or if you integrate something like Adobe Document Cloud, opened by Doc Cloud (which is still in the browser, but Adobe's service instead).
In essence, no PDF application out there (such as Adobe Reader) implements a Chrome plugin to automatically open in the desktop application. Chromium-based browsers will always have the PDF open in the browsers' renderer. Adobe provides a plugin for Chromium browsers that allows you to then click and open it in the desktop, but that's not quite applicable in this case.
This is not useful because we need the ability to click on a SharePoint link and have it open directly in Adobe Pro. The browser PDF viewers is almost completely useless for business and professional needs. Currently I have about 500 copies of the same file downloaded, because this seems to be the fastest way to open them in a useful application, while maintain live revision control.
My default browser is Firefox and I don't want to change that. But some websites are not compatible with Firefox, so when I make a document in MS Word or Excel, I'd like to set links to those sites to open in Edge.
I have a canvas app in GCC High. I put a button in a gallery that is using Launch to open an Excel file stored in a SharePoint Online document library. Even though the library is configured to open files in the client application, the button always opens the file in the web browser. Is there a way to configure the launch URL to open in Excel desktop rather than the browser? I have tried:
I am having an issue with an Excel File being shared between users in the same organization. User A sends a link to User B to a Excel File stored in User A OneDrive. The Link arrives in the Inbox of User B, but when clicked it automatically opens in the system default browser.
I have already enabled 'Link Handling' in Excel and unchecked all boxes in the 'Trust Center' 'Protected View' Tab, but the file will still open in the browser instead of the Desktop Application. After a few failed attempts I rebooted the PC and still nothing. I tested changing the Default browser in Default Apps to a different browser to see if the browser was the issue, but the file just opened in the newly set default browser. I also tested removing the "?web=1" from the end of the link, but this just causes the file to be downloaded by the browser.
One thing I did notice is that when first try to open the file it looks like it is about to open in the Local Excel Application as that Green Excel Box appears, but then closes and a browser window opens with Excel's web version.

But ultimately, it's up the client - if the browser is configured to open the dialog box for such files, then there's nothing the web app can do about that.
I have tried with to open the excel sheet with Inline files i.e. I have set the Content-Disposition header to "inline".
But still the Browser is opening up a Dialog box with "Open", "Save" and "Cancel" buttons.

Also If the Excel sheet Open's Inline inside the browser
Have you tried downloading items in Chrome but they open instead of downloading? If you are using Google Chrome as your internet browser and notice this, don't worry, we can help! If the file automatically opens instead of saving when using Chrome, keep on reading or watch this video!
So, if you click "Always open files of this type (even once!)- ... what happens is that the file will automatically open instead of downloading to the folder, and will open in whatever the default program is for the file type. Then, the file automatically opens instead of saving when I download in Chrome
Click on "Settings" and you'll see a new page pop up in your Chrome browser window. Scroll down to Advanced Settings, click Downloads, and clear your Auto Open options. Next time you download an item, it will be saved instead of opened automatically.
This is the way Chrome handles file downloads. Google decided that rather than allowing applications to automatically open files downloaded through Chrome, the files must be downloaded to your local machine. There is, unfortunately, no workaround for this. If you want to automatically open files from Sharepoint to be worked in and saved back up to SP within the browser, you'll need to use a different browser like IE or Firefox.
Do not double-click or open a CSV file directly from an email or folder. If you do, Excel (or another spreadsheet program) will convert automatically the census block or census tract codes to numbers instead of text.
JMP recently got a built-in ability to open Google sheets. Before that in scripts I was calling an R package called Googlesheets to open them. Now my company is moving to office 365 so we'll have cloud-based shared excel sheets and I'm not sure how I'll be able to read from those. Is anyone opening these directly in JMP/JSL?
I have requirement where I want to display Excel in viewer instead of downloading it in Salesforce. I am using /sfc/servlet.shepherd/document/download/+ ID to download Excel.Is there any way to open it in browser itself.
I had the same issue, Came to find out that the end user was using IE 8 with 64-bit. Switched to IE 8 with 32-bit. Now the user was able to open Excel document from Sharepoint 2010 in Excel instead of IE. Success
Firefox will not be able to properly handle a file if a misconfigured web server sends it with an incorrect content type. For example, Firefox may display the content as plain text instead of opening the file in an application. To learn more, see Properly configuring server MIME types and Common MIME types at MDN web docs. You can contact the website in such cases, or you can try a Firefox add-on such as Content-Type Fixer to work around the problem. (If you use an add-on and need help with it, you should visit the add-on site or contact the add-on developer for support.)
Now when you click a link or open a file pointing to a SharePoint site or document, it will open in the SharePoint app instead of a browser window. This makes it a smooth experience for users who prefer working in the app.
By doing this, all documents will open using their respective client applications instead of the browser. This provides users with a richer experience and enhanced functionality. However, keep in mind that this setting will impact how documents are opened across the entire site collection or document library, so make sure to consider the needs and preferences of all users before making the change.
Open SharePoint in the app for plenty of rewards! It gives you quick access to important documents and files on-the-go, plus allows real-time updates and notifications for better team collaboration. Not only that, but its navigation and search options are user-friendly. Also, data security is ensured with encryption and permission settings, so sensitive info is safe from unauthorised access. Study by Gartner shows organisations using SharePoint as an app experience 30% more productivity. So, abandon web browsers and use this guide to open SharePoint in the app!
