Upload

A Nexus project is typically a container for files which serve to achieve a single outcome, for example, a finalised block model or a periodic mining plan. You can link to a project when you integrate other Micromine applications with Nexus.

To upload files/folders to the current project:

On the Navigation Bar, select the Project you want to upload to:

The Project Browser is opened:

Click Upload on the Project Browser ribbon:

The Upload window is opened. If files have been staged (previously selected for upload, but not yet uploaded) they are displayed. Click Files or Folders to add files or folders to be uploaded:

In Windows File Explorer, navigate to the location of the files/folder you want to upload and either:

Select the files or folder you want to upload and click Open:
Or use the mouse to drag and drop the required files/folder over the Upload window:

The files/folder you have selected are shown in the Upload window.

Note: If you have uploaded a large number of files they will be listed across multiple pages.

When an object is selected, the properties are shown in an Info pane:

Initial file properties are blank, however these will be updated once the file is uploaded.

Object Type and Attribute Values

Click to open the Info | Attributes tab:

The Uploader will attempt to detect the object type, as a known type or Unknown, based on the file extension. Accept the default object type or select an object type from the drop-down list. You can set this for multiple selected files of the same type.

Required (mandatory) attributes for an object type must be entered, otherwise the upload cannot proceed:

The attributes of the object type (if any) are listed:

Once all mandatory attribute values have been specified for all files, the upload may proceed.

Note: If multiple files of the same type are selected, Attributes can be set for all files:

Destinations

To proceed with the upload, at least one upload destination must also be specified. If no destination is selected, an error will be displayed:

When uploading from the workspace or project ribbon, the Library or Project default may already be selected. You can delete this if you don't want to use it.

To add a destination, click the Add more button:

Select the required upload destination in the Select destination dialog that opens.

Note: Within a workspace, project storage and task storage are completely independent of your workspace library storage. You can select any workspace library, project folder or task folder as the upload destination.

When you upload files to multiple destinations, instances of the same file are shown at each destination. Version control is applied at the file level.

If required, you can create a new folder within the destination using the New Folder button at the right of the selected destination.

Clicking the button will display a blank field for entering the name of the new folder, and a Save button to create it.

You can add multiple destinations using the Add more button.

To delete a destination, click on the cross at the right of the destination label:

Click Files or Folder if you need to add more files/folders and set up the properties and destination of those items.

You can click on the trash can icons to remove individual files from the list of files to upload.

Finally, click Upload to upload files to the destination(s) you have specified and with the values you have specified.

The progress of the upload of the files you have selected is shown:

You will receive confirmation when the upload is completed:

Note that you can cancel an upload at any time by clicking on the Delete icons to the left of each file name:

When the file transfer is complete, you can close the Upload window:

Now, when you select a file in your workspace library, project browser, or tasks folder, the properties of that file are populated:

The icon associated with the object type of the file.
The name and an optional description of the file.
Versioning information including the author (who uploaded the file) and any contributors (other users who updated the file).
