When you attach a file to an agreement in Snow License Manager, the error For security reasons this file format cannot be uploaded can appear if the file extension is listed in EXTENSION_BLACKLIST in Snow Management and Configuration Center (SMACC).
The error can occur when the file extension is listed in EXTENSION_BLACKLIST in Snow Management and Configuration Center (SMACC).
IMPORTANT: Changing the file extension settings affects which documents users can attach. Confirm that the affected file type is permitted under your organization's security policy before removing it from the blacklist.
- Open Snow Management and Configuration Center (SMACC), then go to Configuration > Basic Settings.
- Review
EXTENSION_BLACKLISTandEXTENSION_WHITELISTfor the affected file extension. - If the extension is listed in
EXTENSION_BLACKLISTand your organization has approved the change, remove only that extension from the setting. For example, for.zipand.msgfiles, remove thezipandmsgentries. - Try attaching the file to the agreement again.
If the extension is not in the blacklist or the file remains blocked, have your administrator review the settings before making further changes.
