Adding documents
Once a workspace is created, you are able to add documents to the workspace and share them with others. You will only be able to add documents to a workspace if you have the appropriate permissions. In Objective Connect this means that the button - option is available.
You are able to add any file format to Objective Connect, including documents, spreadsheets, PDFs, images, audio and video files of up to file size:
-
Up to 2GB: If your Connect workspace is integrated with Objective ECM or Micro Focus Content Manager via Objective Connect Link, your administrator will have to do additional configuration to support 2GB files. Administrators can refer to Objective Connect Link Installation and Configuration Guide or contact Objective Support for advice and assistance on configuration.
Alternatively if your Connect workspace is integrated with Objective ECM, you can install or upgrade to Objective Connect Link for Objective ECM 2.7.1.0 onwards.For Objective Connect for Windows, see the note on Downloading and installing Objective Connect for Windows.
-
2GB to 25GB: This is allowed only when your workspace administrator has enabled it for you. When you upload a large file (size between 2GB and 25GB), you will see a Large file - not scanned status, however you can continue working on the file without any limitations.
Additionally, if your Connect workspace is integrated with Objective ECM or Micro Focus Content Manager via Objective Connect Link, the file is not synchronised with your repository (Objective ECM or Micro Focus Content Manager).
