how do i get the list of files using onBeforeSelect prop. I cannot get it from the event object that is passed to the handler method. I am trying to validate the file size and file type uploaded using toast messages and not show invalid files in the pending file list of the FileUpload control.

I am using primereact version 9.2.3 which has the onBeforeSelect prop available. please assist.

I was able to get the list of files from event.originalEvent.target.files after much trial and error.

yeah you can always console.log(event) to debug what is available in the event.
