Login

At the login page, you'll be prompted to enter your username and password.

If Single-Sign-On (SSO) is enabled for your site then a list of Sign-On providers will be displayed on the login page. Select the Sign-On provider that you wish to authenticate with.

Upon successful login, you will be presented with the folders and files that you have been granted permission to access.

Users with only access to their "home" folder will be automatically placed within that folder.

Users with access to multiple folder locations will be placed into the highest level intersection folder, allowing them to navigate to all folders that they have been given permission to access.

Administrators will always be placed into the top-level folder of the site.

Left Menu

Most of the functions available on Files.com are organized into a Left Menu. Files.com allows site administrators to customize their site for their users, including certain options from the Left Menu for certain users.
