It's strange to me that DataTransfer.Files is a string[] and there is no reference (that I am aware of) to grab the content of it.
How do I get the file data from an ondrop event?
void OnDrop(DragEventArgs e) { dragClass = ""; if (Disabled) { return; } var files = e.DataTransfer.Items; if (files.Length == 0) { return; } // What now? }
Is it by-design? Is there even access to an IJSObjectReference so I can grab it with Javascript?

Hello @datvm,
in Blazor, DataTransfer.Files only gives you file names, the actual file objects stay in the browser. This is by design to avoid automatically streaming large files over the JS/.NET boundary.
If you need the content from an ondrop event, you have to use JS interop to read dataTransfer.files and then send the data back to .NET.
You can’t get the bytes directly from DragEventArgs alone.

Thanks for confirming. I had to make it work so like you said I just use Javascript interop for the whole thing.
