Hi Gani,

We have checked your reported query. By default, the clearAll method only removes the uploaded files at DOM element. If you wish to remove uploaded files on server side, you can use remove method when button click action performed. The remove method triggered the server side remove url and you can able to remove all uploaded files in server side.

[index.js]

document.getElementById('clearbtn').onclick = () => {

  uploadObj.remove();

};

Go to the File Manager, Select the domain where you want to delete the files, and click Go. Navigate through your files to locate the file you want to delete. Right click the file and select Delete from the pop-up menu. Confirm the file is deleted.

Thanks for your response.

The remove action is clearing the files. After remove action, the file uploader is not working. It is not selecting the new file.

you can test the same in your existing sample as well.

1. upload the file 2. Clear All 3. Select new file to upload

Could you please provide proper way to remove the uploaded files

Dear  UdhayaKumar Duraisamy,

In your demo after clearing you are selecting different files. So it is working fine.

Kindly Do the below steps to reportdue the issue.

1. select 54044.jpg file 
2. Do clear All
3. Browse and select same 54044 file, it is not able to upload again, However you can select different file name.
