Organisation files

What it is

Teams already have a Documents page. Organisations now have the same thing for themselves: a drive at Workspace › Files that holds everything the organisation keeps but that doesn't belong to any single artist team. Brand assets, templates, insurance papers, rider PDFs, decks, exports.

It is meant to replace the generic cloud drive an organisation would otherwise run alongside Aden. It is the same drive as the team one: the same upload box, the same folder tree, the same file types (documents, spreadsheets, archives, images and video) and the same plan-based upload limit.

Using it

Upload. Drag files onto the drop zone, or pick them from a connected cloud provider (Dropbox, Google Drive, OneDrive) if one is linked.

Folders. Folders are created by uploading into them. Open a folder and use Upload here, and the file is filed under that path. Renaming a folder moves everything inside it.

Rename, download, delete. The three-dot menu on any file renames it, downloads it, copies a link, or deletes it. Select several files to download them as a ZIP or delete them together.

Comments. Each file has its own comment thread, so feedback stays attached to the file instead of living in chat.

Contracts are read-only here. Contracts raised against a writer are filed against the organisation too, so they appear in a Contracts/ folder. They can be read and downloaded from the drive but only edited or voided on the Contracts page: the drive never lets someone delete a signed agreement.

Who can do what

Anyone who is a current member of the organisation, or of a parent organisation: can open the drive and download from it. Changing files (upload, rename, delete) needs a staff-side role: owner, admin, manager, member or staff. Members carrying the artist or viewer role see the drive read-only and are told why rather than having the controls hidden.
