The context menu for the File browser can be opened by right-clicking on a file:

Note that Nexus project storage is completely independent of workspace library and task storage.

Navigate Link

The Navigate Link option in the context menu, Viewer, and browsers allows you to create a direct link to a selected file, object or folder that can be opened by another, authenticated user. Selecting any file / object from the browser and picking Navigate Link from the context menu will add the link to your clipboard to be shared. When the recipient clicks the link, they will be taken to Nexus and asked to login before being taken directly to the file, object or folder in the browser. The element you created the link for will be opened in the Info panel and can be viewed, downloaded and worked with as normal from there:

If you share a Navigate Link directly from the Viewer or Document Viewer, the recipient will be able to open it directly in the Viewer or in Document Preview mode respectively. If you create a link to a Folder in the browser, the root of the folder will be opened for the recipient of the link.
