Accessing M-Files Web

You can go to M-Files vaults also with M-Files Web. M-Files Web is a browser-based M-Files client that lets you use the basic M-Files functions.

There are two client versions available: the classic M-Files Web and the M-Files Web. For basic guidance on how to use the classic M-Files Web, see the Using the Classic M-Files Desktop. For guidance on the use of M-Files Web, refer to the user guide for M-Files Web and the new M-Files Desktop. Your system admin has specified one of these as the default client. For example, if the default client is M-Files Web and you decide to open a link to an M-Files item in a web client, the link opens in M-Files Web and not in the classic M-Files Web.

You can get the address of M-Files Web in your organization from your system admin.

Editing content in M-Files Web

In M-Files Web, you can use M-Files Web Companion to edit content with desktop applications. With the classic M-Files Web, you can use the M-Files for Chrome extension.

Logging in to the classic M-Files Web

  1. In your web browser, go to the M-Files Web address given by your system administrator or an M-Files consultant.
    Example: If the name of your vault is Sales Tracker, the address can be https://sales-tracker.cloudvault.m-files.com for cloud-based deployments or http://sales-tracker.mydomain.com for on-premises vaults. In your corporate network, the connection protocol can be HTTP instead of HTTPS.
  2. Enter your login credentials or select Log in with current Windows credentials.
  3. Optional: If you have access to many vaults, select the vault to which to connect.
    If you have access to only one vault, you are automatically connected.
