New functionality
ARES Kudo Drive:
ARES Kudo Drive provides an opportunity for the users to explore ARES Kudo using sample files provided in the drive without integrating any other cloud drives.
Similar to other drives, users can upload, edit, create a new drawing. Also, you can create new folders.
This drive allows users to share files with other users.
There are two sharing options available: View-only link sharing and email sharing
Users can create a view-only link and share it with other users. They can now view the drawing and communicate with the owner through commenting and markups (Users should be logged in to Kudo)
Users can share the drawing through email sharing with the Owner, Editor, or Viewer rights, to other collaborators. A file can have only a single owner.
Users can rename, move, clone, and delete their files. They can also control email notification subscriptions for their drawings.
Deleted drawings are available under the "Trash" folder and can be restored or can be deleted permanently.
Deleted files get automatically removed from the Trash folder after 30 days. We persist versions for the last 30 days
Sample files
New users will get pre-existing sample files in ARES Kudo Drive.
They can use these files to explore Kudo
The sample files will be counted in the storage quota of the users.
Sample files are present under a separate folder so that it does not disturb in user work
Users can delete their sample files
Storage quota
Every user is provided a certain storage quota for their ARES Kudo Drive storage.
Users can track their storage quota under the storage account name
There exists a bar which indicates the amount of storage being used
The color of the bar changes depending on the usage.
Deleted files remain part of the storage quota until the files are permanently deleted.
Even after storage gets completely filled up, users can still edit their existing files and save them.
We only restrict the addition of new files once the storage quota is completed.
If a user transfers ownership of a file to another user, the file will be reflected in the quota of the new owner only
If a user shares a file with Editor or Viewer rights, the file will not be reflected in the collaborator’s storage quota. It will remain part of the owner's storage quota only.
