Overview

By default, in Jive only content defined in the jive.statics.whitelist property can be uploaded.

The upload using various tools, for example the  static content upload plugin, may fail with the error "File Content is Invalid".

In addition, the property jive.statics.whitelist.admin.override can be used in order to reserve some of the file types only for administrative users.

Resolution

By default, the two properties have the following values:​

You can add mime types to the first property in order for these files to be available. 

Anything that will be added also to the second property will be available only to admin.

Please note that the second property is an override - so you need the corresponding mime types to be added to both properties in case you want something to be available for admins only.

Choosing the right mime types

Beware that not all mime types are "universal", and different naming and syntax can be found especially for the least used types.

Warning: the font-related mime types were added recently, and are available only in cloud versions newer than 3000.8 (fixes JVCLD-47473 and JVCLD-48165).

application/x-font-ttf ttf
application/x-font-woff woff
