File Upload Area

Drag and drop the file(s) from your desktop, or click in the upload area to select from a window. Please note that this does not actually upload the file, but instead selects the file for upload. File upload happens once hitting the Upload button at the bottom left.

 

Upload button

Once all files are in the File Upload Area, click the Upload button. This will begin upload of the files from your computer into the dashboard. Note that this can sometimes take several minutes due to the image processing conversions and potentially more time if the files are exceptionally large.

Note: There is a 2GB file size limit. If larger files are required, please contact your OmniAlly Experience Manager to arrange for a temporary increase of file size limits.
