Table of Contents
Documents inside a folder
Documents are the core elements of My Workspace. The document list is the fast-action area of My Folders. Use it to search for a file, preview it, download it, or open its full detail page. This lets you stay in context while moving from a folder-level view into a specific research object.
Each document can include:
- metadata
- version history
- sharing settings
- discussions (depending on context)
Create a new document
To create a document:
- open a folder
- use the creation action
- upload or create content
Documents can represent:
