What is it?

This option allows you to upload your own documents to the server making them available for other users to consult.

When you upload a file you can assign to it a description and key words.

 
What's it for?

For uploading files from your computer to the selected folder in the Repository.

The platform lets you upload five files at a time, assigning each one its own properties (description, key words and whether it is a draft document). The maximum file size is 20MB.

Each time you upload a document, the system will ask you if you have the right to publish this document in accordance with the Law on Intellectual Property Rights.

 
How do I use it?

1- Go to the Repository. If it belongs to the portal, select it using the Tools option in the menu on the left hand side of the portal's main page. If it belongs to a group, go to Groups > Group > Contents > Repository.

2- The main screen shows the root folder as default, letting you see the files and folders stored there. Click on the folder in which you want to save your file. If you don't select any folder, the file will be saved automatically to the root directory.

3- In the selected folder, click on New file/s at the top or bottom of the screen.

4- Click on the Browse button to select the file you want to upload from your computer.

5- You can enter an optional file name. If you don't enter anything, the file name will be the same as the name on your computer.

6- Give the file a description in the corresponding field, and some key words to identify it.

7- If you want, you can publish the document as a draft. Just select the corresponding tick box. You can modify this property later and publish the file as a final version.

8- You can upload up to five files at a time. Just click on the icon. Repeat the previous steps for each file.

9- Click the tick box to confirm that you have the right to upload the selected files.

10- Click on Send to publish the selected files.

 

Note : It is a good idea to avoid long file names. Please also bear in mind that file names should not include accents, special characters (ç, %,...) or blank spaces.
