Restrict spot file upload

You can specify which files can be uploaded as spot files. That means, user can’t use other file types for spots in IXM One.

To create a list of allowed file formats, perform the following steps:

1. Navigate to the configuration files on the server at: GVServer2\www\gv2\gf\GFWebHtmlCustomer\

2. Open one of the following folders:

   • 00000: edit configurations for the entire server, which means for all customers.

   • 000xxx: edit customer-specific settings. xxx is the customer ID.

3. Open the config.json file in your folder with a text editor like Notepad++.

4. Go to common > upload > types > spot > fileTypes > extensions.

5. Specify the file extensions of file formats that you want to allow as spot files such as .html.zip.

6. Save your changes and close the file.
