Hi Team,

I am trying to extend the fileupload.js functionality. There are few more special characters like 'à','ç' (continuous pressing of 'A'/'C' in the keyboard will popup these values). So how can I restrict those values ?

Thanks,

Hi @shetty1191 ,

To achieve this, we would need to overlay the fileupload.js in : /libs/dam/gui/coral/components/commons/fileupload/clientlibs/fileupload/js/fileupload.js

After overlaying that in apps, you would need to:

Add the values/characters which you need to restrict in the _ILLEGAL_FILENAME_CHARS variable (separate them with ,) on line103. - This is the variable which takes care of all the restricted words.

I think the DamFileUpload and DamFolderUpload both use this same variable.
