How to upload webp image in Sitecore CMS

Sitecore don't support webp extension to upload in media library. We need to customize sitecore to enable to upload webp extension. We need to create webp items in Media folder in Template section of content tree, as per below step in master database.

Duplicate  below two items in CMS with name webp:

1. /sitecore/templates/System/Media/Unversioned/Jpeg 

Enter webp in name popup which comes after clicking duplicate option. 

 


path of new item: /sitecore/templates/System/Media/Unversioned/webp







2.  /sitecore/templates/System/Media/Versioned/Jpeg

Enter webp in name popup which comes after clicking duplicate option. 







path of new item: /sitecore/templates/System/Media/Versioned/webp







We need to create a config patch file   /Include/Foundation/*ProjectName*/CustomImageExtension.config with below line :  

















<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<configuration xmlns:patch="http://www.sitecore.net/xmlconfig/">
  <sitecore>
 <mediaLibrary>
    <mediaTypes>
      <mediaType name="webp image" extensions="webp" patch:after="mediaType[@name='XLS File']">
        <mimeType>image/webp</mimeType>
        <forceDownload>false</forceDownload>
        <sharedTemplate>system/media/unversioned/webp</sharedTemplate>
        <versionedTemplate>system/media/versioned/webp</versionedTemplate>
        <mediaValidator type="Sitecore.Resources.Media.ImageValidator" />
        <thumbnails>
          <generator type="Sitecore.Resources.Media.ImageThumbnailGenerator, Sitecore.Kernel">
            <extension>png</extension>
          </generator>
          <width>150</width>
          <height>150</height>
          <backgroundColor>#FFFFFF</backgroundColor>
        </thumbnails>
        <prototypes>
          <media type="Sitecore.Resources.Media.ImageMedia, Sitecore.Kernel" />
        </prototypes>
      </mediaType>
    </mediaTypes>
  </sitecore>
  </sitecore>
</configuration>

    I tried the above customization to implement the webp-format image upload in the Sitecore media library. After adding the patch file, when I tried to upload the webp image in the media library, a new image item was created, but an error occurred message was shown in the alert popup. Below is an exception logged in Sitecore logs.
