# Restrict downloadable files types in static content \[Updated in Security Center 1.3\]

Use the **glide.ui.strict\_customer\_uploaded\_static\_content** property to enable restrictions on the file types that can be downloaded when they have been uploaded using the Upload File functionality.

You use this property with the **glide.ui.strict\_customer\_uploaded\_content\_types** property, which creates a comma-delimited list of restricted downloadable file types.

**Warning:** The value for this property is a no DB override. It can't be altered or overridden.
