DropZone

Lets users upload files through drag-and-drop functionality into a designated area on a page, or by activating a button.

Anchor to accept
accept
string
Default: ''

A string representing the types of files that are accepted by the drop zone. This string is a comma-separated list of unique file type specifiers which can be one of the following:

  • A file extension starting with a period (".") character (e.g. .jpg, .pdf, .doc)
  • A valid MIME type string with no extensions

If omitted, all file types are accepted.

Anchor to accessibilityLabel
accessibilityLabel
string

A label that describes the purpose or contents of the item. When set, it will be announced to buyers using assistive technologies and will provide them with more context.

Anchor to disabled
disabled
boolean
Default: false

Disables the field, disallowing any interaction.

Anchor to error
error
string

Indicate an error to the user. The field will be given a specific stylistic treatment to communicate problems that have to be resolved immediately.

Anchor to files

File[]
Default: []

An array of File objects representing the files currently selected by the user.

This property is read-only and cannot be directly modified. To clear the selected files, set the value prop to an empty string or null.

Anchor to label

string

Content to use as the field label.

Anchor to labelAccessibilityVisibility
labelAccessibilityVisibility
"visible" | "exclusive"
Default: 'visible'

Changes the visibility of the component's label.

  • visible: the label is visible to all users.
  • exclusive: the label is visually hidden but remains in the accessibility tree.
Anchor to multiple

boolean
Default: false

Whether multiple files can be selected or dropped at once.

string

An identifier for the field that is unique within the nearest containing form.

Anchor to required
required
boolean
Default: false

Whether the field needs a value. This requirement adds semantic value to the field, but it will not cause an error to appear automatically. If you want to present an error when this field is empty, you can do so with the error property.

Anchor to value
value
string
Default: ''

This sets the input value for a file type, which cannot be set programatically, so it can only be reset.
