Uploading files#

You can upload files or folders using drag-and-drop functionality or by clicking the “Add files”, “Add folder” or “Upload archive content” buttons.

Please note: SharePoint doesn’t allow the upload of 0 KB (empty) files.

By clicking on the edit icon, you can edit file properties such as file name, content type, title, lookup, and any other default or custom properties. If you want to delete a file without uploading it, simply click on the trash bin icon next to it.
