Hi Madhu,

I have tried the same piece of code and it is working fine for me.

Could you please let me know what exactly is the error message or the issue you are facing so that we can look into it and can help you accordingly.

It would be of great help if you can post the screenshots of what you have done so far which helps troubleshoot the issue further.

Happy to help further.

Thanks,
Nagendra

Hi Nagendra,

FileUpload.cmp
<aura:component implements="flexipage:availableForAllPageTypes" access="global" >
    <aura:attribute name="accept" type="List" default="['.jpg', '.jpeg']"/>
    <aura:attribute name="multiple" type="Boolean" default="true"/>
    <aura:attribute name="disabled" type="Boolean" default="false"/>
                    
    <lightning:fileUpload label="Add attachment" multiple="{!v.multiple}" 
                          accept="{!v.accept}" recordId="0017F00000tN50uQAC" 
                          onuploadfinished="{!c.handleUploadFinished}" />
    
</aura:component>

FileUploadController.js
({
    handleUploadFinished : function(component, event, helper) {
       alert("hello");        
    }
})
Created custom Application which is calling FileUpload component(using this to preview)
 
<aura:application extends="force:slds">
  <c:FileUpload />
</aura:application>

When I am previewing it is not giving alert.
Can you share working code for my reference

It seems some people are confronting here with these problem but no one has a clue.

lightning:fileUpload component doesn't work in lightning out or standalone app. Try dragging your component in a lightning page and it will work. Refer this post. It explains the same problem . https://www.sen-force.com/lightningfileupload-and-lightningfilecard-base-components/
