Description

Currently, the application restricts file uploads to a hard-coded set of formats. I encountered an issue where .ova (Open Virtual Appliance) files are marked as unsupported/unauthorized, preventing me from completing my workflow.

To improve flexibility, I propose making the list of allowed extensions parameterized (configurable) rather than hard-coded.
Proposed Change

Current State: File extensions are restricted to a fixed, internal list.

Proposed State: Introduce a configuration parameter  that allows users to define a custom list of permitted extensions.

Use Case

Allowing users to upload virtual machine images (.ova, .ovf).
Future-proofing the application for other specialized file types without requiring code changes. 

Thanks for isoman
