Initial situation #
The automatic upload of documents using “drag and drop” only works with documents saved on the file system. It is not possible to upload documents directly from Microsoft Outlook.
The reason is that the HTML5 standard targets a physically existing file and this is not available in Outlook.
Bypass solution #
Variant 1: Saving to a temporary folder #
Preparation #
1. create a temporary folder.
Utilization #
2. drag the emails or attachments into the temporary folder. (The files are created there.)
3. Now drag the created files to the ems web in the upload area.
4. Delete the locally created files.
Variant 2: Using the OutlookFileDrag tool #
Preparation #
1. the OutlookFileDrag tool is integrated in the SUBRIS installer and does not need to be downloaded separately.
Utilization #
1. now you can drag emails and attachments directly into the ems Web.
