Upload

The upload question type creates a file-select field with a 'Browse...' or 'Choose File' button for file uploads.

1. Upload a photo of your favorite shoes.
type: upload

Details

• To create an upload question, use the type: upload tag.
• Upload questions accept only image file types by default. To allow other file types, use the accept tag.
• Multiple file types can be specified in a comma-separated list format by listing the media type followed by a forward slash (/), the extension type, a comma, and repeating the pattern.
• You can use the wildcard syntax (*) to allow any extension or file type.
• Uploaded files are stored in the survey's Upload folder within the Files applet.

Additional examples

Uploading a non-image file

In the example below, respondents can upload any music file as the '*' specifies that all audio file types are permitted.

FILE. Upload your music file:
type: upload
accept: audio/*

Specifying multiple file types

If multiple specific file types are required, list them as a comma-separated list using the accept tag. Re-visiting the first example, we again ask for an image file of the respondent's favorite shoes, this time allowing only PNG or JPEG files.
