How to know that new file has been uploaded?

[Shaza]

Hey,
I'm working on fileExplorer control to upload files which I need to save their metadata in a DataBase, so upon uploading I need to call some methods to do that, but I can't figure out the event that triggers onUploading please can you help me?

Hi Shaza,

You can use the RadFileExplorer's ItemCommand server-side event to achieve the required functionality,e.g.:

protected void RadFileExplorer1_ItemCommand(object sender, RadFileExplorerEventArgs e)
{
    if(e.Command == "UploadFile")
    {
        //add custom code here
    }
}

If multiple files are uploaded this event will be fired for each file.

More information regarding the RadFileExplorer's custom-side events is available in this help article.

Kind regards,
