Upload files to file sections

This guide will show how to upload files to file sections, and how to administer them afterwards.

This is a guide for developers, entrepreneurs and contractors who use APEX.

Multiple places in APEX gives you the option to upload files. Examples of this are in a case, on a project or on a unit. You have a couple choices on how to upload or add files to these sections, but here is how to upload a new file:

Follow these steps to upload a file:

This requires that you have navigated to, or encountered a section for uploading files. These sections usually look like this:

Upload by file explorer:

Option available for all devices.

• Press the icon of a cloud with the arrow on it to open your device's file explorer. 
  • If the section does not have a file yet, you can press the empty field to start the same process.

• Navigate to the file you want to upload, and duble press, or press once and press the "Choose" option.
• You should now be able to find your file in the section you wanted it uploaded.

Upload by drag-and-drop:

This option is only available for computer devices (PC, Windows, Mac)

• This utilizes the file explorer on your device, but requires you to manually navigate to your desired file first.
• Then put your mouse cursor over the desired file and press to hold the file.
• While holding, drag the file over to the file section, and release the hold.
• This will make a copy of your file, and upload it to APEX. 

Upload by files in APEX:

If you have already uploaded files into APEX before, or specifically used the file system in APEX, then you can add that file to file sections on demand.

• Press the folder icon with an arrow on it.
• You will then be shown the file system in APEX, and you can navigate to where you have uploaded your file.
• Press the desired file once to mark it, and then press "Confirm" down to the right.
• Your file should then be added to the file section for further use.
