There are three main use cases for File Exchange:

• You want to send one or multiple files onces or multiple times.
• You want to request one or multiple files to be send to you.
• You want to send out one or multiple files and want to request a result to be send back to you.
• You want to forward the files that have been sent to you to another Contributor instead of downloading yourself.

In all cases your file exchange partner receives an email when you have provided files for him to download or when you want him to send files to you. Furthermore you receive an email notification whenever your file exchange partner has downloaded or sent files. In addition you can request your file exchange to approve a file alternatively or in addition to downloading the file.

The platform allows to preview audio, video and graphic files. This allows to download only files of real interest. Furthermore it enables online approvals or file forwarding without downloading of heavy lift files.
