The options parameter is an object that may have the following attributes:

  • callback - is a callback function that is executed when the file is downloaded. It is passed, as parameters, the name of the file stored on the server, the name of the downloaded file and the path to the folder where the file was saved.

  • show_progress - if true and the uploaded file is large, the progress bar will be displayed. the defaul value is true

  • accept - the attribute specifies the types of files that can be submitted through a file upload, see Accept string

Note

The server checks all uploaded files for compliance with the Upload file extensions attribute of the Project parameters.
