File Manager Overview (Beta)
The File Manager allows you to upload and organize your project files into folders in one single place, where all project team members can access the most up-to-date information.
This article provides an overview of the interface and features of Newforma Konekt File Manager.
Interface overview
You can access the Newforma Konekt File Manager from the Project menu by clicking Files.
The interface is divided into two parts:
The folder tree on the left displays all the folders and data sources in the form of a tree structure. Clicking the arrow expands or collapses folders.
The file list on the right allows you to sort, rename, move, download, delete, and share files. You can share multiple files at once by selecting them and clicking the icon at the top of the list.
