Upload options

Determines how quickly the new content is available to other users, and whether you can use Webtop while the checkin occurs.

Note: If you used drag-and-drop you are not given this option.

Select one of these:

  • Send for immediate global access: Updates the repository immediately for all your organization’s users. While this occurs, you cannot perform other actions in Webtop.

  • Send first for local access: Updates the repository immediately for the users in your geographic area, but Webtop takes more time to update the repository for all users. This allows you to continue using Webtop while the update occurs.

Note: If checking in multiple files using the Next button, this option appears only for the first file. The choice you make automatically applies to all remaining files.
