Last updated
The admin settings in the Files module of MangoApps allow network administrators to control various aspects of file management for their domain, including the default PDF viewer, view type, and image analysis features. Administrators can set file and folder sharing permissions, enable uploads via email, determine the maximum video upload size, and more. These settings provide comprehensive control over the file management system, enhancing efficiency and ensuring consistency across the network.
Choose a title for the Files module. This title will display in the user portal.
Select the default PDF viewer that should be used to view PDF documents within the domain. File owners have the option to override the default selection for their PDF file upon upload.
Viewer options include:
Open in Mango PDF Viewer
Open in Browser PDF Viewer
Download Option Only. No PDF Viewer
Tip: When using the Mango PDF Viewer, press Shift + R to rotate the page you're viewing!
This setting controls the default view type for files. Options include:
Standard - This option provides a browser-based standard scrolling view, allowing users to scroll through the document vertically, similar to how most web pages are navigated. It offers a familiar and straightforward way to read through documents.
Flip Book - This view mimics the experience of reading a physical book. Users can flip through the pages horizontally, providing a more interactive and engaging way to browse documents. This format is particularly useful for presentations, reports, and any documents where a page-by-page navigation enhances readability.
This feature automatically detects and tags images uploaded to the system, aiding in easier search and organization. Options include:
None - No automatic image analysis done
Auto detect & auto tag - Utilizes the Mango App AI/ML engine to automatically detect labels, objects, and activities in the image. The system then assigns up to 15 hashtags with the highest scores to the image.
Auto detect & recommend tags - Uses the Mango App AI/ML engine to detect labels, objects, and activities in the image. It recommends up to 15 hashtags with the highest scores, allowing users to select which tags to apply.
When enabled, image analysis is performed on images uploaded by network users in teams (except unlisted) and in the network drive. The analysis is also triggered when a new version of an image is uploaded. Additionally, if image analysis is turned on, PII (Personally Identifiable Information) detection will be performed according to the DLP (Data Loss Prevention) policies configured in your network.
Sets the maximum allowable size for video uploads. Options include:
Default - When this option is selected, the maximum upload size is set to 5GB per video for web uploads and 200MB per video for mobile uploads. This limit applies to all users, including network and intranet administrators.
75/100/200 MB - The selected maximum upload size (75 MB, 100 MB, or 200 MB) per video applies to both web and mobile uploads for all network and guest users. Network and intranet administrators are not subject to this limit.
Choose the default order for displaying files when users access the Files module on the web or mobile app. If folders are present, they will appear at the top, followed by files sorted according to the selected order.
Determine the behavior for uploaded files with the same name.
Upload as New Version: When a new file is uploaded to a folder that already contains a file with the same name, the new file will automatically be saved as a newer version of the existing file.
Keep Both Files: When a new file is uploaded to a folder that already contains a file with the same name, both files will be kept separately. A number will be appended to the new file's name to ensure it remains unique within the folder.
This setting does not apply to file attachments uploaded with other content types, such as updates, comments, posts, pages, wikis, events, libraries etc. When there are duplicate file attachments associated with these content types, all files will be retained, with a number appended to each file name to ensure uniqueness.
The following settings provide further customization and control over file management within the Files module:
Only Network Admin Can Set Custom Fields
This restricts the ability to set custom fields to network administrators only, ensuring consistent and controlled use of custom fields. Even file owners cannot set custom fields unless they are network administrators.
Make Hashtag Mandatory Dimension in File Upload
When enabled, this requires users to include hashtags during file upload for better categorization and searchability. This restriction applies even to file owners unless they are network administrators.
Allow sharing of folders/files with non-member guest users
Team admins will have the option to enable sharing folders with guest users who are not team members. Once enabled, any team member can share with non member guests.
Domain and intranet admins will also be able to share network drive folders with guest users
Guest user account will be auto-created, if one does not exist in the network
Enable Public File/Folder Sharing
Allows files and folders to be shared publicly, making them accessible to users outside the network without requiring authentication. Team owners can turn off this setting at a team level, and file or folder owners can disable it at an individual file or folder level.
Allow the Built-in File Viewer to Display the Content of Any Document
Enables the built-in File Viewer to display document content directly within the module. Over 50 document types are supported, including Microsoft Office files, which use the Office Online Viewer, and PDF files, which use the specified PDF Document viewer.
Allow File Uploads via Email
Users can upload files to the system via email, provided they have permission on the target folder. If a file with the same name exists, the new version will overwrite the existing file. This setting ensures convenience and flexibility in file management.
Disable My Drive
If enabled, the "My Drive" feature is disabled, preventing users from storing personal files within the network. This setting helps enforce centralized file storage policies.
Show System Includes Folder in Files Module
When enabled, system folders are displayed within the Files module, allowing for more comprehensive file management. The System Includes folder is a default location for media file uploads.
Once you have configured the settings as desired Click the Save button located at the bottom of the settings page to apply the changes.
By configuring these additional options, administrators can fine-tune the file management experience to meet the specific needs and policies of their organization.
The Mango PDF Viewer serves as a direct improvement to the standard Browser PDF Viewer by adding several additional options to aide in file management. For a detailed look at these options, visit the .
