Hi,

Sorry i missed this message.

Current permitted file types in our corporation are :
png/gif/jpeg/tiff/psd/pdf.

Our team was wondering is there a way to upload visio - Container diagram
for example that are developed in MSVisio, be uploaded directly to wiki.

Currently, we are taking jpeg image of the visio file and uploading it in
our wiki pages.

Hope this helps.

Thank you,
Vinodini A
