❓ Issue/Question

  • From the home screen, I selected Upload and tried to upload a file, but the β€œAdd files” button is greyed out and I can't select any files
  • Also, there's no option to choose a collection, why is that?

Β 

πŸ‘Œ Resolution/Answer

  • The collection is the only mandatory field when uploading. Add files stays greyed out until you select one
  • Select the collection first
    • Open Upload from the home page
    • Select the collection the files should go into, before filling in other fields such as the team
    • Click Add files and select your files

Β 

πŸ₯š Cause

  • Add files is disabled until a collection is selected, because every upload needs a destination collection
