Adding a MIME type

Use this information to add a MIME type definition.

1. Copy the default definition file and place it in a file called <extension>/mimetype/mimetypes-extension-map.xml.
2. Modify the inserted MIME type to match your requirements. For example:

   <alfresco-config area="mimetype-map">
   
      <config evaluator="string-compare" condition="Mimetype Map">
         <mimetypes>
   
            <mimetype mimetype="application/xxx" display="My Example Mimetype">
               <extension>ex</extension>
            </mimetype>
   
         </mimetypes>
      </config>
   
   </alfresco-config>          
           

   An example file is provided in <extension>/mimetype/mimetypes-extension-map.xml.sample. You can include multiple files and each one is loaded automatically.

3. Save the file.
4. Restart SkyVault Content Services.
