Welcome
The Web Client in GoAnywhere Managed File Transfer provides you with the ability to
perform multiple types of file transfers and file sharing through your browser. No
additional software is required on your computer, and all popular browsers are
supported including Internet Explorer, Firefox, Safari and Chrome.

The file transfer modules provided within the Web Client are named Files, GoDrive,
Mail, and Forms, which are described below.

Files Feature

The Files feature provides browser access to authorized files and folders on the server.
Files can be transferred quickly between the desktop and server over HTTPS protocol.
Since files are stored on a standard file system, they can be directly accessed by
backend applications and programs. Files provide the following features for users:

l Access files and folders on the server through an intuitive browser interface.
l Drag-and-drop one or more files and folders to the side menu to move, copy to
GoDrive, or send as Mail attachments.
l Drag-and-drop files and folders from the desktop to the server to upload them
(when dragging a folder on to the page, the folder's directory structure will be
flattened).
l Use the optional Java Applet to transfer files and folders through a split-page
interface. Includes progress monitors and the ability to resume any failed
transfers.
l Send download-only links through the optional Mail module.
l Copy files from Web Client Files to GoDrive.

GoAnywhere MFT Web Client Guide www.goanywhere.com page: 5


Welcome /

GoDrive Features

GoDrive is a secure file system that provides Enterprise File Synchronization and
Sharing (EFSS) services for authorized users. With GoDrive, files and folders can be
easily shared between users with advanced collaboration features including file
revision tracking, commenting, trash bin, media viewing, and more. GoDrive
applications available on Windows, Mac, Android, and iOS can be used to synchronize
files locally to the devices. GoDrive provides the following features for users:

l Access files and folders on GoDrive through an intuitive browser interface.


l Drag-and-drop one or more files and folders to the side menu to move, copy to
Files, or send as Mail attachments.
l Drag-and-drop files and folders from the desktop to the GoDrive server to
upload them.
l Synchronize files with Windows, Apple OS X, iOS, and Android devices.
l Share files and folders with other users.
l Specify granular permissions (e.g. read only, edit, etc.) for shared folders and
files.
l Receive automatic email notifications when shared folders and files are
accessed by others.
l View images and PDF files through the browser using the Media Viewer.
l Add comments to files and folders.
l Search for files or folders.
l Keep file revisions, with the ability to restore previous versions.
l Lock files to temporarily restrict access.
l Restore files from the Trash Bin.
l Send download-only links through the optional Mail module.
l Copy files from GoDrive to Files.

Welcome /

Mail Features

Mail allows authorized users to send messages and files as secure "Packages" on an
ad-hoc basis. Recipients will get an email with a unique link to each package, allowing
them to download the message and files through a secure HTTPS connection. This is a
great alternative to regular email since there are no file size or file type restrictions. Mail
provides the following features for users:

l Send sensitive messages and files to one or more recipients as a secure


Package.
l Attach multiple files with no size limits.
l Set expiration dates and maximum downloads.
l Optionally password-protect Packages.
l Request files from one or more email recipients.
l Optionally receive email notifications when Packages are opened by recipients.
l View audit trails of all activity.
l Receive reply messages with attachments from your recipients.
l A Secure Mail plugin for Outlook® is available for sending mail directly from the
Outlook Compose page.

Form Features

Forms allow users to enter information and upload files through custom screens which
are designed by GoAnywhere Administrators. After the information is completed by the
user, the form can be submitted for processing in GoAnywhere. Forms allows users to:

l Work with one or more authorized forms.


l Fill out forms using text fields and drop-down lists.
l Upload one or more files with each form (optional).
l Download output files after the form is processed by GoAnywhere (optional).

GoAnywhere MFT Web Client Guide www.goanywhere.com page: 7


Welcome / Technical Requirements for the Web Client

l Save forms (as drafts) to complete at a later time.


l View the history of submitted forms to show the date submitted, input values and
any output files.

Technical Requirements for the Web


Client
l Cookies and Javascript should be enabled within your browser for the Web
Client to function properly.
l Some options may open secondary windows. Popups should be allowed for this
site.
l If using the Applet, the Java Runtime Environment 1.6 (JRE) needs to be
installed on your computer.

NOTE:
The Java Runtime Environment is also referred to as the Java Virtual Machine or
simply Java. If the correct version of Java is not installed on your computer,
GoAnywhere will prompt you to install the latest version of Java.

GoDrive
The GoDrive module in GoAnywhere is an on-premises Enterprise File Sharing &
Synchronization (EFSS) service. All of your images, documents, videos, and sensitive
files are stored on the GoAnywhere server which your organization controls. Anything
you add to GoDrive will automatically synchronize through the server and appear in
each of your connected devices, as well as the Web Client, allowing you to access your
files from any internet connected PC. Using GoDrive, you can securely share files and
collaborate with other team members or trading partners.

You can upload files by dragging and dropping them from your local desktop directly on
to the GoDrive page. Once a file is uploaded to the service, GoDrive keeps track of each
file revision, allowing you to restore a prior version of a file. You can temporarily lock
your shared files to prevent users from making changes or deleting them. Comments
can be added to files and folders to communicate to others or leave reminders for
yourself. Files and folders that are deleted can be restored from the trash bin.

The GoDrive Menu option is available if your account is authorized to use this feature.
From the GoDrive toolbar you can upload files, manage folders, use the media viewer to
view image files and documents, view thumbnail previews of images, or search for files
and folders.
