How to use

Before you can upload files to MS Connect you need to set up a pathway for the Raw file uploader to reach MS Connect. For this, you'll need the server IP address for MS Connect and your Username and Password. image

If MS Connect is running on your current device then you can use one of these Addresses

http://127.0.0.1/files/api/ or http://localhoast/files/api/

If MS Connect is running on a different device replace "IP_Address_Here" with the MS Connect IP Address

http://IP_Address_Here/files/api/

Next, insert your Username and Password and click "Verify Account". Now you should be able to upload files to MS Connect.

Configure Settings

Before you upload it is good practice to record important information for your colleagues and your future self. These settings also tell the Uploader and MS Connect how to process this information.
