Visual Space manual, Docs, Upload Files And Folders

Use this walkthrough to add a batch of files or an existing folder tree to Documents, follow every result, and confirm that the new material arrived in the right part of the space. The destination matters as much as the files: everything you upload inherits the audience of the space, subspace, or activity that contains it.

Add files to the right Documents location, follow each upload, and check the finished library. Use a folder upload when the structure on your computer is already useful to the people who will browse it.

Choose The Location And Audience

•
Open the intended space area - Enter Documents for the space, subspace, or activity that should own the files.
•
Open the destination folder - If needed, choose New → New folder, give it a clear name, and open it before selecting files.
•
Check access - Folders inherit their area's audience. Use an appropriate private area for material that should not be public.

An archived activity does not accept uploads, even through a nested folder. For personal material, first open the full workspace through the Docs button in My Docs.

Upload Files Or A Folder Tree

•
Choose files - Select New → File upload and choose one or more files from your device. Canceling the picker adds nothing.
•
Bring a folder - Choose Folder upload where supported, or drop a folder from your computer into Documents on the web. The upload recreates its nested structure.
•
Check the destination heading - Confirm where the batch started. Changing the open folder afterward does not redirect the existing uploads.


The New menu keeps folder creation, uploads, and supported app documents together.

For a few files, dropping them directly into the writable Documents view is another starting point. Choose one method for a batch so you do not upload the same selection twice.

Follow Progress To Completion

•
Watch individual results - The tray distinguishes files still transferring, files finishing processing, successful uploads, and failures.
•
Minimize when useful - Collapse the tray while continuing to browse, then expand it to review the outcome.
•
Keep completed files - One failed item does not undo successful uploads. Note the unsuccessful filenames rather than selecting the whole batch again.

Closing the tray is not cancellation. Transfers already in progress can continue. Check the destination before starting another upload of the same material.

Resolve A Failed Item

Use the failure message to choose the next action:

•
Reduce an oversized file - Export a smaller version or use Increase limit when available. The shown limit applies to that file type and your current eligibility.
•
Review capacity - A storage failure is separate from a per-file size limit. Check the space's capacity and available storage Boosts; moving a file between folders in the same space does not remove its storage usage.
•
Choose a supported format - Export blocked executable, script, or active browser content into an accepted format.
•
Select unreadable local data again - If your device could not load the file's bytes, choose it again after checking that the local file is available.

For another failure, check whether the file reached the destination before retrying it. Uploads and Storage explains the allowances and what counts toward them.

Verify The Library

•
Reopen the original destination - Look for the successfully uploaded files, especially if you browsed elsewhere during the batch.
•
Inspect nested folders - For a folder upload, confirm the hierarchy and check where files landed if folder creation reported an error.
•
Open representative files - Preview an image, video, or supported document; use the explicit download action for formats without a browser preview.
•
Retry only missing items - Preserve completed uploads and avoid creating duplicates by repeating the entire folder unnecessarily.

A generic card without a picture can still represent a successful upload. Once the originals are present and readable, you can organize them or share them in Chat.
