I would like to display a PDF help file in a HELIO project. Is it possible to add files to a HELIO project so that they can be displayed as a local link? HELIO is running on ctrlX only.
Can I add a PDF to HELIO project?

I have two comments:
If the HELIO server is running on the ctrlX, the HELIO project is also located on the ctrlX. Therefore, you have to copy the PDF file via the ctrlX web interface, as there is (currently) no upload function in HELIO.
On the ctrlX, the path to the PDF file must be prefixed with /helio.
Copy PDF to ctrlX
Log In to ctrlX WebUI
Click on icon "Manage app data" (1)
Click on "HELIO data directory" (2)
The data direcory of HELIO is displayed
Click on "assets" (3) to open folder
Click upload icon (4) and select the file to upload
Webview content settings
Since the HELIO WebServer on the ctrlX is accessed via the postfix /helio, this must also be included in the path to the PDF file.
443 is the port of a physical ctrlX.
8443 is the default port of a virtual ctrlX with port forwarding
While HELIO on ctrlX is delivered via https, protocol must be https
