Folder Structure Upload

If you’re working in a data room that has not yet been populated, you can upload your entire folder structure and files using Vault Rooms Structured File upload (or Zip Upload) function.

First, you will need to create a zip file of the folders on files on your local computer.

For PC instructions on creating a zip file, click here.

Click here for MAC instructions on creating a zip file (or compressing files).

Once you have your structure file (or zip file), you are ready to upload it to your data room. Let Vault Rooms expand it and create your entire folder structure for you. Note: zip upload will upload and create empty folders within the zipped folder structure.

From the documents tab and with the room selected, click Zip Upload from the menu bar.

In the upload window, click "+Add Files" to browse for and select the zip file from your computer, or you can drag and drop it onto the upload window.

Click Next Step.

On the Settings tab, specify the Document Settings that will apply to all files in this upload session.

Document Overrides affect how a specific document(s) is presented in the Document Viewer. For more information on Document Overrides, click here.
Ignore Duplicates? and Overwrite file if exists.-
A value of "Yes" in the "Ignore Duplicate" field will cause the upload session to ignore any folder/files that have been previously uploaded to the data room with the same name and file size. A value of "No" in the "Ignore Duplicate" field will cause the upload session to upload identified duplicates. If duplicates are not ignored, then the value in the "Overwrite file, if exists" field will determine whether or not the existing file will be replaced or the new file will be appended with a number.
If a Document Tag tab is displayed, you have document tags turned on. To see more information on using Document Tags, click here.
Click Next Step.

On the Summary Tab, review the settings for the upload session, determine if users will be notified of the uploaded files, and click Complete.

A confirmation message is displayed, and your upload session is submitted to the job queue for processing. As noted on the screen, you will receive an email when the upload is complete.

Click Close.

After the job has completed processing, a refresh of your screen will reveal your newly uploaded folder structure and files.

A log of the zip upload is placed in the room's System Folder.
