Using the Bulk Upload Feature, Administrators can upload large quantities of signed documents to their company's repository at once.
Tips for Getting Started
- Check your file types - you can use the Bulk Upload feature to import PDF & Word files.
- Ensure your files are compressed into a Zip file - upload your documents into a repository, like Dropbox or Google Drive, then use the software to generate the Zip file.
- To avoid creating duplicates, do not create a ZIP file from the Mac/iOS software. Do not click on a Folder on your Mac and click 'Compress". Instead, place the Folder into a repository then compress the Zip File.
- Name your files - the file name will become the title of your document in Concord (this title can be edited later)
- While you may perform unlimited bulk uploads, please note the maximum size of a single upload is 500MB.
- To help manage the organization, we recommend organizing your documents into separate Zip files before performing the upload - you can associate them with tags or folders at the upload time.
How to Bulk Upload:
- Click the bottom-left settings cog and select 'Settings.'
- Under Company Settings, select 'Bulk Upload.'
- Click 'NEW UPLOAD'
- Click 'Browse' and select your Zip file.
- If you'd like to organize your files right away, add a Tag or Folder name
- Click 'START UPLOAD'
Depending on the size of your file, your upload can take up to a few hours to complete. You can navigate away from the page or close the browser, and it will not impact the upload in progress.
Task Details
- Once the Zip has begun uploading, you can check on the progress in the Task details screen.
- Clicking on an upload task in the Tasks list opens the task details. The name of the Zip file, the creator, and the upload start date and upload ID are shown in the header, as well as the Status of the task:
- In progress: the process is still running, the full results are not available yet;
- Done: the process is finished, and 100% of documents were be uploaded successfully
- Done with exceptions: the process is finished, but some documents were not uploaded due to being an unsupported file (Ignored) or another error (Error);
- Error with Zip file: the transfer of the Zip file failed, was interrupted, or the Zip file is corrupted.
Uploading Status
- To ensure all uploads were successful, we display the upload status for each document in the Zip file.
-
- Imported is displayed when the documents have been successfully uploaded. Clicking on the line will open that document in Concord.
- Ignored is displayed when the document was not supported (PDF or DOC or DOCX) and could not be uploaded. To resolve this, adjust the file type, then include that document in another bulk upload (or use the import executed document feature).
- Error is displayed when a different (non-file-type) error disrupts the document upload. Please see the Log message column for more details.
