Upload files to a site that requires file approvals
Some sites may be configured to only allow accept files that are approved.
As of June 2023, you may upload files, but they are subject to the approval process.
Upload the file normally, with the Upload and attach option.
A notification is displayed:
The file is submitted for approval. Open the Sync notifications window from the toolbar to the current status of the file:
Click the More actions icon to Open drive folder.
Click the HighQ icon in the Outlook toolbar to see a list of submitted files.
If the file is approved, it is made available on the site, as with any uploaded file.
If you edit the file on the site, it is submitted for a new approval.
You cannot upload a second version of the file if the first has not yet approved.
If the file is rejected, you receive a notification, and the file is removed from the site.
