Downloading Files

You can download files from two places in the Collaboration Hub:

  • Documents page — Download any file you have access to from the full archive.
  • Published Outputs page — Download approved, published documents.

Download Requirements

  • Public documents are downloadable without signing in.
  • Internal and private documents require an active signed-in account.
  • Internal documents are available to authenticated users.
  • Private documents are available to the uploader, administrators, and members of the canonical upload organization or an eligible shared project organization.

Supported File Types

Files accepted by the current upload/archive allowlist can be downloaded in their original format:

Category Extensions
Documents .pdf, .docx, .doc, .txt, .html, .htm, .md
Spreadsheets .xlsx, .csv
Images .png, .jpg, .jpeg, .gif, .tif, .tiff, .bmp, .webp
Presentations .pptx, .ppt
Archives .zip, .rar
Data .json, .xml, .kml

File Size Limits

  • Each uploaded file is limited to 100 MB.
  • The 500 MB configured export limit applies to the combined input size of a selected multi-file export, not to an individual file download.
  • Large downloads may take time depending on your connection speed.

Download Troubleshooting

"Download button does nothing"
  • Check that your browser is not blocking popups.
  • Ensure JavaScript is enabled.
  • Try a different browser.
"Downloaded file is corrupted"
  • Ensure the download completed fully before opening.
  • Try downloading again.
  • If the issue persists, report the specific file to support.
"Access denied when downloading"
  • The document may have restricted access.
  • Contact your manager to request access.
  • Your session may have expired — try logging in again.

Exporting Data

Managers and admins can export archive metadata as CSV for offline analysis. This includes:

  • Document titles and filenames
  • Tags and metadata
  • Upload dates and source information
  • Access levels and approval status

Export functionality is available through the Documents page filter panel.

Download History

For audit purposes, signed-in downloads are recorded. The audit-log view is available to administrators only; anonymous public downloads are not associated with a user audit event.
