Per Microsoft's Office for the Web file size limitations, refer to the below list to ensure your file is viewable and editable from IT Glue:
​

  • Excel spreadsheets must be less than 5 MB

  • Word documents must be less than 50 MB

  • PowerPoint presentations must be less than 300 MB


Instructions

  1. Log in to your IT Glue account and navigate to Organizations > Documents.

  2. Click + New > File Upload to upload a document.

    The document will now appear in the Document list view. Editable documents will show an Office icon beside the title.

    Alternatively, you can also open your Finder/Explorer, select your files, and drag and drop directly into the Documents list view. Windows 10 users with an OS role of "Administrator" will not be able to drag and drop files into Documents List View in an Organization when using Chrome.

    1. Note that a Microsoft login is required for you to edit a document. If you do not have an account, return to the list view and click on the document name to view only.
