How to set default value for "stoarge" in File Component [Question]

Hi There,

I want to set the default value of “Storage” to “URL” and remove all other fields like s3, dropbox…

I want to do this on Formio.builder() and as well as on Formio.createForm()

Thanks, Rohit

You could acheive this by setting a default option to this kind of fields using

"components":   {
      "file":{
         "schema":{
            "type":"file",
            "storage":"url",
            "url":"https://google.com"
         }
      }
   }

and then you can hide this using

editForm: {
    textfield: [
      {
        key: 'api',
        ignore: true
      },{
        key: 'data',
        ignore: true
      }        
    ]
  }

Note : You should also check provided default values at the server side to verify data, otherwise someone can play with these hidden data.

Just keep chaining this method in different components, at the end, you’ll be able to achieve whatever you want.

Obviously, you can also change the system config from the core library, but that won’t be easy task compared to this method.

If i create a new custom component using this then i can set a default value for this stuff, but is it possible to override main component?

   "components":   {
      "file":{
         "schema":{
            "type":"file",
            "storage":"url",
            "url":"https://google.com"
         }
      }
   }
