Requesting Files

You can request files from anyone with an e-mail address. This allows users outside VCU to securely share files with you.

2. Click the Request Upload button on the My Files screen

3. Select any desired options

Options:

Request expiration date: Defaults to 2 weeks. Can be set to expire sooner
Send request to email: Address of recipient
Add message to email: You can set a message for recipients to see when the file is shared with them
Other options: You can Allow multiple file uploads, be notified, and optionally password protect the upload request

Then, click Create Request to send the file upload request to the recipient.

Note: If an incorrect e-mail address was entered, you will not be notified.

See the downloading files page to see how to download files uploaded to your account
