Uploading Files

Add files to your workspace using drag and drop or the upload dialog.

Drag and Drop Upload

The fastest way to upload files is to drag them directly from your computer onto the Files app. A blue overlay will appear indicating where files will be uploaded.

Using the Upload Dialog

  1. Click the + New button in the toolbar
  2. Select Upload Files
  3. Either drag files into the dropzone or click to browse
  4. Select a destination folder using the path selector
  5. Click Upload to begin the transfer

Upload Progress

During upload, you'll see:

  • Individual progress bars for each file
  • Completion status indicators (green checkmark for success)
  • Error messages if any uploads fail

Handling Duplicates

When uploading a file with the same name as an existing file:

  • A warning dialog appears explaining the duplicate
  • Choose Continue and Create New Versions to add the files as new versions
  • Choose Cancel to abort the upload

File Size Limits

By default, files can be up to 100 MB in size. Administrators can adjust this limit in the workspace settings under Settings > General > Files.
