SW07210 - Item Types: Files

Shared Workspace allows members to collaborate using computer files by uploading and sharing them within a Room.

Files can be uploaded to a Room by either

  • using the Add File method explained in the learning packages on Kalidus

or, for those members using the eRoom plug-in software SW07610

  • by dragging and dropping the file to the appropriate location.

Controlling Access

Under no circumstances should any information with a marking of OFFICIAL, SECRET or TOP SECRET be added to Shared Workspace SW03150.

Members are able to control who can access and/or edit the files that they upload using Access Controls SW07410.
