Remote Editing is a powerful feature of FileFlex that allows you to remotely edit files stored anywhere on your organization infrastructure, from your smart phone, tablet or remote computer, from anywhere in the world. When you remotely make edits to files, FileFlex will save the edited file back to the source storage repository while keeping a version history that you can revert to if needed.
To remotely edit a file:
- Open the storage repository where the file is located and navigate to the file and click its activity menu (3 dots). In the dropdown, choose 'Edit in App'.
