JavaScript/jQuery FileManager - Validation

Permissions

Use the permissions property to specify whether to allow or deny a user to manage files and directories in the FileManager UI component: copy, create, download, move, remove, rename, or upload.

The UI component also has the allowedFileExtensions property that allows you to specify file extensions allowed for display and upload in the FileManager UI component. The UI component fails to upload and displays the error message if a user tries to upload files with restricted extensions.

Upload Settings

The UI component allows you to configure upload settings:

  • maxFileSize Specifies the maximum upload file size. The UI component does not upload a file and displays the following error message when the file's size exceeds the maximum upload file size.

  • chunkSize Specifies a chunk size to divide a large file in parts and upload them in separate requests.
