But from library is not working

@mohitchechani Apparently adding restrictions to the library uploads needs some Python codingā€¦

I will inform you when Iā€™m doneā€¦

to restrict file upload on frappe path :- apps/frappe/core/doctype/file//file.json { "fieldname": "file_type", "fieldtype": "Select", "label": "File Type", "options": "JPG\nJPEG\nPNG\nPDF\nCSV\nXLS\nXLSX", "in_list_view": 1, "in_standard_filter": 1, "read_only": 1 }

The provided script is functional in version 14, and I trust it will meet your requirements as well.

frappe.ui.form.on('doctype_name', {
    validate: function (frm) {
        // Get the file field
        var fileField = frm.doc.field_name;

        // Check if the file field is empty
        if (fileField) {
            // Define allowed file extensions
            var allowedExtensions = ['.xls', '.xlsx', '.csv'];

            // Get the file extension of the selected file
            var fileExtension = fileField.split('.').pop().toLowerCase();

            // Check if the file extension is allowed
            if (!allowedExtensions.includes('.' + fileExtension)) {
                frappe.msgprint(__('Only files with extensions ' + allowedExtensions.join(', ') + ' are allowed.'));
                frappe.validated = false;
            }
        }
    }
});
