I am using the ContentPreview component in the box-ui-elements package in a React app.

I am passing fileId into the component and would like to specify the fileVersionId to view that specific version.

const fileOptions = { "fileVersionId": "1023764078920" }
<ContentPreview
          hasHeader
          fileId={selectedDocument.boxFileId}
          fileOptions={fileOptions}
          token={token}
          language={language}
          messages={messages}
        />

https://github.com/box/box-content-preview lists fileVersionId as a fileOption, but I havent figured out how to use it with the react version.

    I was close, the answer is 

     const fileOptions = {
            [selectedDocument.boxFileId]: { fileVersionId: version?.boxVersionId },
          };
          render(
            <ContentPreview          
              hasHeader
              fileId={selectedDocument.boxFileId}
              fileOptions={fileOptions}
              token={token}
              language={language}
              messages={messages}
            />,
            container
          );
