File Management

File Management feature and menu option is for ease of uploading and managing Plugin related files uploads centrally.  It can be used to upload files for Plugins. This is accessible only by sysadmin, as the plugins are uploaded and managed by sysadmin. The main use of this feature is to provide the supporting files to the plugin which can be configurable or constantly changing.

For example, File Management is used to manage latest browser drivers for WebGUI plugin. The flow is as follows.

1. Upload the latest browser drivers (e.g. <CHROME<VERSION>.zip>) for WebGUI Plugin - using Plugin Management on AutomationEdge UI. 
   
2. Once uploaded the driver is available for both Process Studio and Agent (for Process Studio, additionally, perform Plugin Sync operation so that the drivers are available for automation).
   

Following are the steps for File Management on AutomationEdge UI,

1. Navigate to the File Management menu.
