``` ## Details The pipe takes a MIME type as input and returns the URL of an SVG file that symbolizes that type (see the [Thumbnail service](thumbnail.service.md) for the mapping between types and icons). The pipe will return a "miscellaneous" icon when no specific mapping is defined. ## See also - [Thumbnail service](thumbnail.service.md)
