Upload and Download Files

Upload

There are several ways to copy your files from your computer to the cloud. File uploading continues in the background, so you can continue to work while files are being added.

  • Drag and drop the files from your local computer to your web browser.

  • Click Upload to add files to the current location.

  • Select an unopened folder and choose Upload to this Folder from the right-click menu or the menu bar.

  • You can also select a file and choose Upload New Version from the right-click menu, the menu bar, or the version history dialog.

Keep these things in mind when you’re uploading files:

  • You can tag files as you upload them by giving them identifying keywords. If you decide later that you want to use that item as a digital asset, you can easily search for the tag and add it to your digital assets collection or folder.

  • Try to keep file uploads smaller than 5 GB. Some web browsers can't process files bigger than that.

  • To add the contents of an entire folder, you can set up the desktop app. Just add the folder into the sync folder and the content is added to Oracle Content and Experience Cloud for you.

  • If someone shared a folder with you, you may not be able to upload a file into that folder or download a file. It depends on the role you were given when the folder was shared. For example, if you have a Viewer role, you can't upload files and the option to upload a file is unavailable.

  • Your service administrator may limit the kinds of files you can upload. To see what file types aren't allowed, open your user menu. Click Preferences . The Documents section lists any limitations on file types and file sizes (if there are any). Files types are listed according to the file extensions, such as .mp3 or .exe.

  • To cancel an upload, click the Details link on the information bar at the top of the screen while the file uploads. Click the X for the file you want to cancel.

Download

You can download files from the cloud to your local computer in a couple of ways:

  • When viewing a file, click Download in the file viewer.

  • When viewing files in a list, select a file and choose Download from the right-click menu or the menu bar. You can also click the download icon on the right side of the row.
