Given the FileInfo data types hierarchy, this chart describes the mapping between media types and how to reference them in a presentation creation or update request. Note that elements will be upgraded to the highest matching type in the server response. For example, if you reference "Dynamic Playlist" by the "StoredFile" element it will be returned as a "DynamicPlaylistFile".
