" summary

A production CMS shows file upload buttons that do nothing only when used in Chrome on macOS while drag and drop works, so the issue is not app code but OS permissions. The investigation compares two apps, narrows to one browser and one OS, googles the query "mac choose file in Chrome", changes the System Preferences file access permission for Chrome and confirms uploads, a practical resolution fixed in under 15 minutes.
