You can upload files and folders to Web Access in either of the following ways:
Click Upload files from the top toolbar.
Drag and drop files from your computer into the destination folder in Web Access.
Using the Upload button
To upload a file or folder using the Upload button, follow these steps:
Click Upload files to open the Upload files window.
Click Upload files or Upload folder.
When you select Upload files or Upload folder, an upload window opens.
Drag and drop files or folders from your computer into the upload window.
Using Drag and Drop
To upload files or folders from your computer using drag and drop, follow these steps:
Open the destination folder in Web Access.
From your computer, select one or more files or folders.
Drag them into the file list area in Web Access and drop them.
Uploading starts automatically, and the progress is displayed.
Upload Progress
After you select your files or folders, uploading starts automatically and uploads to the folder you are currently viewing.
Items still uploading show a percentage complete. Items that have finished uploading are shown in green.
Permissions
You can only upload files and folders to locations where you have the “write permission”.
Existing Files or Folders
If you upload a file or folder with the same name as an existing item in the destination location, Web Access prompts you to choose one of these options:
If the item is a folder:
Keep both: Keeps the existing folder and uploads the new folder with the same name, with a number appended (for example, Folder (1)).
Cancel: Stops the upload of the new folder.
If the item is a file:
Keep both: keeps the existing file and uploads the new file with the same name, appending a number (for example, Report (1).docx).
Replace: Replaces the existing file with the new one.
Cancel: Stops the upload of the new file.
Once you make your selection, Web Access applies it to continue (or stop) the upload.
Folder Structures
As of Web Access version 10.3 and later, when you upload a folder, including nested folders, Web Access preserves the folder structure exactly as it appears on your computer.
Hidden Files and System Files
Web Access automatically skips common operating system hidden and system files during upload, such as:
.DS_Store (macOS)
Thumbs.db (Windows)
