      Copy Albums/Folders to the Portal

      OBJECTIVE

       To copy Albums or Folders, as well as Individual Files or Images, to the Portal in ConstructionOnline™.

      BACKGROUND

       ConstructionOnline cloud file management gives you and your team unlimited storage and access to project documents from anywhere.   Give your Team access to important Files & Images by copying them to the ClientLink/TeamLink Portal. If a File is too large to send as an email attachment, copying it to the Portal ensures your project team can access it. 

      THINGS TO CONSIDER

      • Files & Images downloaded through the shared link are not tracked or logged by ConstructionOnline.
      • Copying a private Album/Folder will make its visibility Public in the copied location.
      • ClientLink/TeamLink users must have the "Recent Files" or "Recent Photos" Permissions checked to see Folders or Albums within the Portal.
      • Only Administrators and Company Users with permission to Upload and Edit Files and Photos can copy folders/albums to the Portal.
      • Copying Albums & Folders takes an exact copy of it at that time and will not update as new Files are added to the original Album or Folder. To continually share new Files, try Share Albums/Folders with ClientLink/TeamLink.
