Managing Files and Folders in Designer
Astera Cloud allows you to seamlessly transfer content between your local machine and the cloud environment. Whether bringing local files into Astera Designer or saving work back to your system, the Designer offers intuitive tools for efficient content management. This document explains how to perform both upload and download operations.
Using the Toolbar Option
You can upload files using the Upload button 
in the tool-bar or by pressing Ctrl + U on the keyboard.
This button also has a dropdown option to Upload Folder if you want to upload an entire folder instead of individual files.
Your local file explorer will open. Here you can select the files (or folder if using the dropdown option) you want to upload and click Open.
A success message will appear and the Data Source Browser panel will open with the uploaded content in a Default Uploads folder.
Using the Data Source Browser panel
The Data Source Browser panel also has a similar upload button . This option will only be enabled when a user has selected a folder, as this button is designed to upload files or folders to the selected folder rather than the Default Folder. The rest of the steps remain the same as before.
To save files or folders from Astera Cloud to your local machine, you can use the download functionality available in the Designer.
In this document, we will learn how to download files and folders from the Designer.
Using the Data Source Browser Panel
You can download content by first selecting a file or folder in the Data Source Browser panel, this will enable the Download
button.
Click the Download button.
Your local file explorer will open, allowing you to choose where you want to save the downloaded content. Select your preferred download location and click OK. The selected content will be downloaded to your chosen location.
Once the download is complete, a success message will appear confirming that the download was successful.
