Got Recieved Shared: how, from where ?

It's a block to open file through our app, like as you see "open with" option while opening image in whatsapp or other apps.

Probably need to use a file extension from Taifun or vknow360 to access the file structure/location to do this.

Hmm, I know that extensions, but's there is no event block for got received shared. ):

Ah, you didn't mention that this was something happening in the background.....?

You will need the web component and the gotFile event.
