AttachmentPreviewListComponent
The AttachmentPreviewList
component displays a preview of the attachments uploaded to a message. Users can delete attachments using the preview component, or retry upload if it failed previously.
The following attachment types are supported:
- Images - displayed inline
- Video files - no preview provided inside the message input, but displayed inline inside the message list
- Other files - no preview provided, users can download the uploaded files
Example 1 - attachment previews
Basic Usage
A typical use case for the AttachmentPreviewList
component would be to use in your custom components that will completely override the message input component.
