File Upload widget

Hello,

 

Is there any way to limit the number of simultaneous files uploaded in the widget properties?

 

I realize I could do some limitations by not using the automatic upload and counting the files using the "FileNames" propery.

 

However I kind of like the automatic upload feature so if possible I'd like to keep it.

 

Any ideas are highly welcome!

 

Thanks,

Jens

I have couple of queries here,

  • simultaneous files uploaded in the widget - By multiple users or single user?
  • automatic upload feature - Do you want upload from client system (browser) to Thingworx server?

Hello,

 

Sorry, I was perhaps a bit unclear:

 

#1: It is possible to select and upload multiple files all at once:

Where I would like it to be limited to only one file at once.

 

#2: The automatic upload feature is that once you have selected one or more files (or dragged them to the widget), it will automatically start the upload to the selected repository:

So basically to "avoid" uploading more than one file at a time (per user), I would have to remove the possibility of automatic upload and check if there are more than one file name in:

But I feel like this would confuse users as this doesn't stop them from actually selecting multiple files.

 

At least I haven't found any property to change it to only one file per upload, but perhaps I have just missed it.

 

Thanks,

Jens
