Environment

SAP SuccessFactors Work Zone

Reproducing the Issue

1. Open any Workspaces

Cause

.ics file is allowed in Work Zone Content, but .html file is not allowed.

The uploaded .ics file contains .html file and caused the error.

Please check if .html file is included in .ics file.

If the text formatting is changed to Plain text or Rich text, and save the .ics file, it can be uploaded successfully.
