Upload Max File SIze

Overview

In this article, we will demonstrate how to restrict the maximum size of a file when uploading on a SharinPix Album or SharinPix Single Image. To do so, we will:

• Create a SharinPix Permission to set Max File Size
• Assign the Permission to a SharinPix Component

Prerequisite:

Before using this feature, ensure:

• The SharinPix Package Version 1.340 (or later) is installed; refer to the article below to upgrade your current package: How to upgrade SharinPix package

Creation of SharinPix Permission

• In SharinPix Permissions, create a new record or edit an existing permission.
• Open the Upload section and set the maximum file size in Megabytes.

Assign the SharinPix Permission to the Album component

• On a SharinPix Album, add the ID or Name of the SharinPix Permission record, which includes the maximum file size.
• In this example, the custom permission was named Maximum File Size of 2MB. It has been set in the Custom Permissions Id or Name parameter of a SharinPix Album component.

Tip:

The above will also work for a SharinPix Single Image. The custom permission created should then be defined as a Single Image Permission.

Demo

Now, the file will not be uploaded, and an alert will appear during upload if it exceeds the maximum file size set for the permission.
