Configure Allowed File Types
Administrators can control what types of files that users are allowed to upload to Resources in Vuforia Studio using a configuration parameter.
|
|
This configuration parameter only applies to the Resources section in Vuforia Studio. Individual widgets have their own set of restrictions that are based on applicable file types that are appropriate for that widget. For example, the Model Target widget only allows CAD file types, and the Image widget only image file types. |
1. Open a text and source code editor (for example, Notepad++), and create a file named config-settings.json
2. Save the file to C:/ProgramData/VuforiaStudio/.
|
|
If you used the legacy Windows installer of Vuforia Studio (pre-9.10), C:/ProgramData/VuforiaStudio will not exist.
|
3. Add the following property to your newly created config-settings.json file:
{
"AllowedExtensions": []
}
4. Inside the brackets, add all file extensions that should be allowed to be uploaded to Resources. For example, [".jpg", ".pvz", ".mp4"].
Things to Keep in Mind
• If the config-settings.json file is not present in C:/ProgramData/VuforiaStudio/, any file extension will be allowed to be uploaded to Resources.
• If the config-settings.json file is present in C:/ProgramData/VuforiaStudio/, only file extensions included inside the brackets will be allowed to be uploaded to Resources.
• If the config-settings.json file is present in C:/ProgramData/VuforiaStudio/, but the brackets are left completely empty, then any file extension will be allowed.
