getMIMEType

A function that retrieves the MIME type by integrating getMIMETypeFromFile, getMIMETypeFromResponse, and getMIMETypeFromUrl. Returns an empty string ('') if it fails to retrieve the MIME type.

💡 You can narrow the type to MIMEType using the isMIMEType function.

💡 See the Note section below for all available MIME type values.
