Files
Project files in folders with previews, versions and the same permissions as everything else.
Uploading
Drag files onto the Files tab or use Upload. PDFs, Office documents, spreadsheets, images and data files up to 200 MB are accepted. Files are content-addressed, so re-uploading the same document does not duplicate it.
Each person has a storage allowance — 5 GB by default, set by the administrator — and everything you upload anywhere on the platform counts against yours; the Files header and Settings → Activity show how much is left, and deleting a file frees it again.
PDFs of papers belong in References (they are parsed, cited and quoted); use Files for protocols, ethics approvals, forms and figures.
Folders and search
Create folders, move files between them and search by name. Every file shows who uploaded it and when; the Activity tab records downloads of sensitive files.
Datasets
Tabular data uploaded on the Data tab is profiled and scanned for identifiers before anyone can analyse it; see the Data page.
Datasets, manuscripts and outputs as files
The root of Files also lists the project's datasets (with rows and variables), manuscripts and saved analysis outputs, and the search box finds them. They open in their own editors — Data Studio, the manuscript editor, the Output viewer — while uploads keep their folders, moves and renames.
