Hi Halvor,

Thank you for submitting to the Appfarm Community. This functionality is not currently available in Appfarm Create, but we are testing it ready for a future release.

An image can be uploaded manually from your PC using a [File Object Class](https://docs.appfarm.io/reference/global-data-model/object-classes#file-object-class) in the meantime, using the [Create File Object](https://docs.appfarm.io/library/action-nodes/create-file-object) action node.

Hi again Halvor,

Please excuse my previous answer - while there is no specific UI component available for this, this functionality is available as a setting on the Container.

Please see [here](https://docs.appfarm.io/library/ui-components/container#hover-and-file-drop-zones) for a way to support drag & drop functionality using the Container component.

A full example of this functionality is available in our [Showroom](https://showroom.appfarm.app/action-nodes/create-file-object). You can sign up [here](https://showroom.appfarm.app/sign-up) if you don’t have access to the Showroom.
