Uploading and working with files

In Data storage you upload files into a selected folder and can perform actions on files: download, view history, upload a new version, or remove.

Uploading a file

  1. In the left panel select the folder where you want to upload the file. Upload is not possible without a selected folder.
  2. Click Add file (or Upload file). A dialog or upload section opens.
  3. Choose a file from disk (or drag and drop into the drop zone). Optionally you can set a display name – if left empty, the original file name is used.
  4. Confirm upload. After a successful upload the file appears in the file list of the selected folder.

Upload requires write permission for the Data storage module.

File list

On the right, columns are shown: Name, Size, Modified, Modified by, Actions. The search box above the table filters files by name. You can sort the list by clicking a column (if supported by the app).

Actions on a file

  • Download – download the current version of the file to disk.
  • History – show the log (who uploaded the file or uploaded a new version, and when).
  • New version – upload a new version of the same file (name stays, content is replaced; older versions remain in history).
  • Remove – permanently remove the file from storage (may be soft delete depending on implementation). Only remove files that are no longer needed.

Adding and removing files is available only to users with data storage management permission.
