FileShadow Blog

• Sharing files in Slack® collaboration software can now be done directly from your FileShadow account. You can publish files to one or more channels in any Slack Workspace. Files sent to you or by you can be archived in your FileShadow vault.

Publish Directly to Slack Workspaces

• Using FileShadow to send a message with an attachment from your account is simple. Select the file you would like to send then select the Send to Slack button on the left. Choose the target Workspace and channel(s), enter your message and hit Send. That’s it!

Archive Files Sent to You In Slack Channels

• One or more of your Slack Workspaces can now be added to your FileShadow account. This allows you to archive the files from your channel regardless of who sent them. Simply navigate to the Manage section and select the Sources button. Select Link Source and choose the Slack icon. Enter your Workspace, Username and password, and your files can now be archived.

Classic Folder Navigation

• Many of us have become accustomed to organizing our files in a folder structure. This allows us to categorize our documents, photos, and other files in a heirarchy that makes sense and allows us to navigate to our important files. FileShadow does not require you to organize your files in this way. With Machine Learning and Custom Tags you no longer need to know where your files are located in a folder hierarchy. You just need to know the content in your files.
  
  However, you can now use the Classic Folder Navigation feature to find your files using path location just as you would on a local computer.  In this mode, the main files panel will contain a folder heirarchy or path to the files you are viewing. This gives you a secondary and very familiar way to find those important documents.

Stability and Performance Improvements

• As always FileShadow continues to make improvements in stability, reliability, and performance.
