File Formats Supported in File Preview
SystemLink Enterprise allows you to preview various file formats.
Limitations on File Preview
The file preview only supports files with a
file size of less than 250 MB.
Note Tests on the Monaco
editor (an editor for previewing text files) use a large file containing 400,000
lines. Each line has 100 words.
A CSV file can preview in two
formats:
- The table format displays the first 10,000 rows and first 200 columns.
- The text format displays all content.
Webpage files, such as .html and .shtml, render as a webpage in the preview and not as text.
Media Files
Note If you are unable to preview a media file
supported by SystemLink Enterprise, ensure your browser supports
that format.
