Since I could not find this answer in text form, and easily visualized, here is the list of supported file extensions for the view, or "preview" command (the command with an eye icon) in IFS Cloud Web:

PNG, JPEG, JPG, BMP, GIF, TIF, TIFF, MP3, WMA, MP4, WMV, WEBM, OGG, TXT, PDF

    ​@Mathias Dahl We have attached an excel and view option is not there. Is this because it’s not supported file type

    What are the main benefits you see in having a preview inside IFS compared to opening it in the associated application on the computer?

    There's one option: make sure there's always a view copy for important documents and users will be able to preview them.
