Kiling it Dimitar. Awesome stuff. How do we allow multiple file types?

Great video but how do you retrieve the image to the client side like a social media app

[harijella]

Great video to update and upload the document. Can you show how to View/Display the pdf/zip/doc/text from the Fire Storage?

How do you use choicechips in a form to send a list of document references to Firebase?

It's a fantastic job so far! Perhaps, with your code, it could be possible to check the file size before uploading to Firestore, a functionality not available in the native upload functions from FlutterFlow. Could you please consider adding code that enables us to retrieve the file size before uploading? This would allow us to implement a file size limit...

Hello! When I try to run test mode it shows an error - could not find directory like I tried to change path but it is the same

[DeSofSistemas]

Hello, I did everything to the letter but I could not do it. The code you share is different from the one you are using in the example and it doesn't work. It's a shame to waste so much time to get nowhere.

How can be implemented a realtime virus and malware scanning when uploading a file?

[apoorvsaxena]

[amnaahmed]

Hey i watched your video. I am new to FF. Actually I've created a Dashboard page where there is list view and table. I want when user click on Upload button, it should save that data to firebase and return me a url so that i can give that url to Zapier web hook to perform furthur step

thanks for your content!
I use flutterflow myself and have small problem. I build a price feed (stocks) and do an API call to get the price change of a stock f.e. amazon. Afterwards I run a custom function to convert this data into a string so I do display a format like -0.45%

This works fine. But I want to set the color to green, if it is a positive number or to red in case it is negative. I am trying to find a solution for weeks now, nothing works. Could you help me? :))

Can you upload a website file or maybe code?

[charliefinale]

One correction to the code, you should add a ! to this line so it becomes final selectedFile = await selectFile(allowedExtensions: [fileType!]);

Also I believe we can refactor the imports so that it will compile in FF. I will try. Otherwise great code that I have tested and it works.
