Bulk Metadata and File Uploader

This enhancement to Vault’s platform upload expands functionality to allow for the bulk upload of many documents in asynchronous batches.

The Problem

Customers, especially those who had recently adopted the platform, were faced with hours of upload and tagging their files being imported from other systems. Manual entry also was prone to errors that compromised reporting. This upfront workload was hindering new customers from utilizing Vault for older files and impeded the potential product stickiness.

The Solution

This bulk uploader allowed customers to upload content of all kinds in batches that aligned with common metadata. Multiple account users could initiate asynchronous uploads at one time, and the system would track ownership and avoid overriding files inadvertently. The Vault system then could manage rich media and larger than typical document formats that are common when working with video working files, as the enhancement increases the maximum batch size to 100GB. The enhancement also provided live upload progress to the user and feedback on the state of rendition creation.

Optionally, all files in a batch can have their metadata added at the point of upload.

Individual or multiple files can have their metadata updated during upload.
