Last Updated : 24 Apr, 2025

Angular PrimeNG is an open-source framework with a rich set of native Angular UI components that are used for great styling and this framework is used to make responsive websites with very much ease. In this article, we will learn about Angular PrimeNG FileUpload Events

The FileUpload component is used to make an element that provides users to upload file content.

Angular PrimeNG provides different events, like onBeforeUpload, onSend, onUpload, or onError, etc, that help to create the dynamic FileUpload.

Angular PrimeNG FileUpload Events:

onBeforeUpload: It is a callback that is fired before file upload is initialized.
onSend: It is a callback that is fired when the request was sent to the server.
onUpload: It is a callback that is fired when file upload is complete.
onError: It is a callback that is fired if file upload fails.
onClear: It is a callback that is fired when files in the queue are removed without uploading using the clear all button.
onRemove: It is a callback that is fired when a file is removed without uploading using a clear button of a file.
onSelect: It is a callback that is fired when files are selected.
onProgress: It is a callback that is fired when files are being uploaded.
uploadHandler: It is a callback that is fired in custom upload mode to upload the files manually.

Syntax:

<p-fileUpload name="..."      (event)=function()>      .....  </p-fileUpload>
