Managing files in the Cabinet

Managing files in the Cabinet

The Cabinet is your go-to place for accessing all files that are a part of your project. 
To access files in the Cabinet, choose a space and a project within that space. View File-Type Project.



Now, navigate to Cabinet from the left panel. You'll be able to see all translatable files that have been added to the project.

Adding files

To add more files to the project,
1. Click Add More Files.
2. You can either drag and drop the file or click Browse and select the file.



3. If you wish to upload more files, click Add More Files in the top right corner of your screen. After you're done, click Save.



Deleting files

Admins and managers can delete files. To delete a file, choose the file you wish to delete and click the corresponding three-dot icon.



All translations associated with the file will also be deleted. Once deleted, all members of the space will lose access to this file.
