HCL Connections Ideas Portal

Welcome to the HCL Connections Product Ideas Lab! The place where you can submit product ideas and enhancement request. We encourage you to participate by voting on, commenting on, and creating new ideas. All new ideas will be evaluated by the HCL Product Management & Engineering teams, and the next steps will be communicated. While not all submitted ideas will be executed upon, community feedback will play a key role in influencing which ideas are and when they will be implemented.

For more information and upcoming events, please visit our HCL Connections page.

HTML5 Directory Upload for Connections in Browser

Current state:
Currently, using the browser interface users can only upload individual files to Connections. Users are able to select multiple files for upload, but not a whole directory or multiple subdirectories for upload.

Enable uploading of Directories and Subdirectories into Connections through the browser interface. Switching to the Windows/Mac Plugin for this is not an option.

This should be possible according to multiple sources on the web, including the  W3C’s Web Platform Incubator Community Group (WICG).
