When to use File Extension

Use this check to inspect a browser, device, network, permission, media, or input capability directly in the current runtime before relying on it in another workflow.

Filename
Required string input.
Expected extension
Required string input.

How File Extension works

Extract and compare a filename's final extension case-insensitively. An extension is a label only; this tool does not inspect file bytes or establish a safe MIME type. The tool evaluates the supplied inputs together and returns the named outputs below; it does not infer omitted operating conditions or change the units shown.1

Detected extension
The resulting detected extension returned as a string.
Matches expected
The resulting matches expected returned as a boolean.

Limitations and assumptions

  • Results describe the current browser session and can change with permissions, privacy controls, hardware, drivers, network path, power state, or browser updates. Unsupported or withheld information is not proof that the underlying capability is absent.
  • Use finite inputs in the displayed units and preserve more precision than the final presentation requires. Independently verify safety-critical, financial, compliance, or production decisions.

Alternative or Complementary approaches

Repeat the check in the browser and device that will actually be used, then confirm important behavior with the relevant operating-system or network diagnostics. Avoid granting permissions that are unnecessary for the test.
