Saving & downloading files
Take the actual deliverable with you.
Find a result locally or download it through Connect to the device you are using.
Take the actual deliverable with you.
When you need a generated image, document, installer or another project file.
A path in a chat is not useful if you are working on another computer. File delivery connects the generated file with an action appropriate to your device.
On the Host, open the containing folder. In Connect, follow the transfer progress and download the file. Desktop Connect uses your configured destination; a browser follows its own download behaviour.
How to get started.
From your first choice to the result. Here is how to use this feature in your own project.
- 01
On the Host, open the folder containing the original result.
- 02
Through Connect, download a file that has been made available. Transfers show progress when needed.
- 03
Choose a download folder in the installed Connect app. For web downloads, the browser manages the destination.
How it could work for you.
Download a generated presentation from your tablet while the source file remains in the Host project folder.
How to assess the result
Online availability is temporary. Keep the downloaded copy; deleting a temporary transfer does not delete the Host source file.
Where to find it.
Conversation → File card; desktop Connect → Settings → Download folder
Available actions depend on your plan, mode and project state. Features that require a task become available within an appropriate conversation.What is saved?
The original stays in the project folder. An online transfer copy is temporary and expires after two hours.
What you need to know
Expired online files must be made available again. A file still being created or transferred is not ready to download.
