Using the Storage App

Learn what Storage is all about.

Updated over a week ago

The Storage area in TidyHQ is an excellent place to store key documents your organisation uses, such as your policies & procedures, constitution and logo. Your TidyHQ account comes with 25Gb of storage absolutely free!

Only Administrators with the Storage App permission can upload files into Storage. However, each document is uploaded with it's own unique link, which you can share with others outside of your organisation should they require access to the document.

In this article:


Uploading a file

Go to Storage>Files. Click the grey "Actions" box on the far right and select Upload from the drop-down menu.

Click the blue Add Files button.

Navigate to the file you wish to upload from your computer and click Upload.

The file you have chosen should be shown on the screen. Select the green Start button beside the file name to upload the file.

Once the file has been uploaded, the status bar will be completely green. Click Files on the left to go back to your Storage directory where you will now find the file.

File size limitation: Please note there is a 2Gb limit on the size of any individual file or image you upload. Ideally you would not upload files of that capacity owing to the total storage space of 25Gb you receive with your account.


Creating folders

We recommend you organise your files into various folders so they are easy to locate.

To create your folder structure, go to Storage>Files, click the grey "Actions" box on the far right and select New Folder from the drop-down menu.

Type in the name of the folder and click Save.


Moving files into folders

Go to Storage>Files. Locate the file you wish to move and click in the small box to the left of the file name.

Then click the grey "Actions" box on the far right and select Move To.

Click on the name of the folder you wish to move the file to, and then click Move.


Deleting files

Go to Storage>Files. Navigate to the file you wish to delete and click in the small box to the left of the file name.

Click the grey "Actions" box on the far right and select Move to Trash from the drop-down menu.

When a confirmation box appears, click the red Move to Trash button.


Restoring a deleted file

To restore your file from the Trash, click Trash from the main menu of your organisation's dashboard (directly under Archive).

Click the "Storage" tab. Find the file you wish to restore, and click the blue Restore button on the right. Your file will now be restored to your Storage App.

You will also notice that a record of who actually trashed the file is here, as well as in the Activity feed.
