If you want to add your own control for selecting a file from an external file system in the pop-up window to be linked with the existing Link control for every basic block, you can set the "externalFilesLibrary" param when you initialize the Plugin:

window.Stripo.init({
...,
externalFilesLibrary: {
buttonText: 'YOUR BUTTON NAME',
open: openLibrary(onFileSelectCallback, onCancelCallback) {
/* Put your logic here.
Call
onFileSelectCallback('https://YOUR_STORAGE_FILE_URL')
when user select the file from external library.
Call
onCancelCallback()
when user close the library without file selection.
*/
}
}
});

As a result, your customers can add the file by clicking on the "Pick up mu file" button.


Please find a code example here to see how it works in general.
