Does components v2's FileComponent allow for previewing the attachment within discord?

I'm attaching a plaintext (text/plain; utf-8) txt using Component V2's FileComponent, loaded in from a buffer. The attachment is available where I want it within the message structure -- but only as a downloadable attachment, not as a preview. Am I doing something wrong or is it not possible to have file preview when using a FileComponent? 
    const fileName = 'input.txt';
    const filePath  path.join('C:\\path\\to\\file\\', fileName);
    const fileContent = await fs.readFile(filePath, 'utf8');

    const example = new AttachmentBuilder(Buffer.from(fileContent), {
            name: 'example_dump.txt',
            contentType: 'text/plain; utf-8' 
        });
    const fileComponent = new FileBuilder().setURL('attachment://example.txt');

    channel.send({
        flags: MessageFlags.IsComponentsV2,
        components: [
            fileComponent
        ],
        files:[ example ],
    });
    const fileName = 'input.txt';
    const filePath  path.join('C:\\path\\to\\file\\', fileName);
    const fileContent = await fs.readFile(filePath, 'utf8');

    const example = new AttachmentBuilder(Buffer.from(fileContent), {
            name: 'example_dump.txt',
            contentType: 'text/plain; utf-8' 
        });
    const fileComponent = new FileBuilder().setURL('attachment://example.txt');

    channel.send({
        flags: MessageFlags.IsComponentsV2,
        components: [
            fileComponent
        ],
        files:[ example ],
    });
There is other stuff componentV2 stuff in the message as well. thanks in advance.
