FAQPage Schema
How do I implement API-based file uploads in a Salesforce UI bundle?▼

You can implement API-based file uploads by calling the upload() function with a files array, utilizing API-only patterns like upload and createContentVersion to handle the process while you build a custom UI for progress tracking.

How do I link an uploaded file to a Salesforce record using ContentVersion?▼

You link an uploaded file to a Salesforce record using ContentVersion by supplying a recordId during the upload for immediate linking, or by using a deferred linking workflow after the target record is created.

Can I track upload progress and cancel file uploads in a React Salesforce component?▼

Yes, you can track upload progress and cancel file uploads in a React Salesforce component using enforced progress callbacks for tracking and AbortController for cancellation.

What is deferred linking for file uploads in Salesforce?▼

Deferred linking is a workflow where files are uploaded initially without a target to obtain a contentBodyId, and then linked to a Salesforce record via ContentVersion once the target record is eventually created.

Do I need Apex to handle file uploads in a Salesforce UI bundle?▼

No, you do not need Apex because this approach implements API-only patterns like getCurrentUserId and createContentVersion directly, enabling file uploads entirely through the API.
