Button for file upload

Note

The task interface configuration guide describes the features of the HTML/JS/CSS editor. You can also try creating a button for uploading files in Template Builder.

To add a file upload button to the task, use the {{field type= "file" name="output field name> "sources="<sources parameter>" fileType="<fileType parameter>"}} component. Example:

`{{field type="file" name="result" sources="GALLERY" fileType="IMAGE_OR_VIDEO"}}`

For a complete list of parameters, see the table.

In the output data description, add one of the fields:

  • Field with the file type — for uploading one file only. Example:

    {
    "result": {
    "type": "file",
    "required": true
    }
    }

  • Field with the array_file type — for uploading several files at once. Example:

    {
    "result": {
    "type": "array_file",
    "required": true
    }
    }
