UE4 File uploads from contact form (general question).

When you have a file field within a form, the UE4 wizard allows you to attach the file to an email (as per the video). Is there a way of specifying what type of files are allowed, max file size etc. I expect it's there somewhere but I can't seem to find it.

You would have to use validation toolkit to validate the field type in that case. Field validation is not included in UE or DFP directly.

In DFP (file manipulation > file upload) there is a box to tick for web Images Only. If you do choose Web Images Only, on the next page of the wizard, you can resize the image if you wish.

What I'm asking is, is that functionality available from within the Create Email Message > Manage Email Attachment area of UE4. It doesn't seem to be in the wizard but is it available after the behaviour has been applied. I'm particularly interested in restricting the maximum file size of an attachment to an email.

If it isn't then fine, but if it is then how would I go about it.

It isn't directly available from universal email.

You could use DFP and then instead of specifying the attachment from the field, specify an attachment from the uploaded file binding, and you can use Form Builder's server validations to do any further validation from there.

Yes I've come to that conclusion as well.

Thanks for your time Ray. Your help and guidence is always genuinely appreciated.

My apologies, DFP does NOT give a way of restricting the max file size although it does allow the resizing of images (not necessary in image attachments I don't think). As it was the max file size I was interested in then that part of my question no longer applies.
