I’m trying to use an input with type="file" in the UI, but I’m getting this error:

Input type “file” isn’t supported by matInput.

What is the correct way to implement a file upload input in this case? Is there a recommended alternative approach?

Use HTML input element.

Can you clarify this? I don’t see any other input element available except the one from “Form controls”.
