Monitoring file download by team members
Hi,
Is there a way that I can see when and how frequently my team members have downloaded specific files from shared folders?
I am planning to share valuable information with my team and I don't want them to download these onto their own computer.
thank you.

Hi,
I know where to find the information you are telling me but this is not really answering my question. I only would like to know if I can see which team member has downloaded specific files and when this has taken place.
Is this possible?
Kind regards,
Sjoerd

In this case, all you need to do is go to your Activity tab from within your Admin Console and apply the filters you'd like to narrow your search to be so specific. I was just able to do this for specific members on my team by applying the "Downloaded files" filter (you can also determine a date range for more accurate results) - this is how it looks like (I used a file's extension for my search : .png files in this example):
I hope this helps to some extent Sjoerd - please let us know if you have any more questions!
In the meantime, have a wonderful new Year sjrd1991!
