  • fileURL:

    The URL of the file to use for the item provider’s data. The item provider uses the filename extension to determine the universal type identifier for the associated data.

The system uses the URL’s filename extension to select an appropriate universal type identifier. If the system can’t determine a specific universal type identifier based on the filename extension, it assigns the public.data universal type identifier for the file.
