Previews

File previews here refer to the in app/browser rendering of the contents of a file. Request to add a mime type for preview at https://github.com/frappe/drive/issues.

Here is a (non-exhaustive) list of file types we support. Want something added? Please get in touch or open an issue!

Office

• application/pdf
• application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.document
• application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet

Images

• image/png
• image/jpg
• image/gif
• image/svg
• image/webp

Videos

Frappe Drive lacks any transcoding pipeline for now so only H264, H265, and AV1 codecs are supported for video streaming.

• video/mp4
• video/webm
• video/quicktime

Text

Generally most text files should preview but this is ever expanding so we might miss some.

• Most mime types with starting with text/
• Support for this codec is platform dependant. For example: H265 only works on MacOS and Windows running Chrome (Safari also supports it).
