The File Upload Monitoring Parameter (for Windows Clients)

NOTE: A similar parameter is also available for macOS Clients.

File upload monitoring allows File Upload operations performed on Client computers to be detected and monitored.

If the Enable file upload monitoring checkbox is selected for the required Client / Client group to (on the Editing Client / Editing Client group page, on the Monitoring [Windows/macOS] tab, in the Monitoring Parameters section at the top) to enable this option, then whenever users of the Client computer (or of any of the computers in the Client group) perform a File Upload operation, it is detected by the system.

The File Monitoring tab (on the Activity Monitoring page) displays a list of the File Upload operations performed by users on Windows Client computers.

File Upload alerts can also be configured (when adding or editing an alert of the Alert Management page) containing rules using the File Upload (Windows and macOS) parameter to detect whenever users of the Client computer (or of any of the computers in the Client group) perform specific File Upload operations that trigger these alerts, and notifications can be configured to.

• Send email notifications.

• Show a warning message on the Client computer's screen.
