#### 2. Choose an Upload Method

There are two ways to upload media. Choose the one that fits your workflow.&#x20;

**Scheduled Posts**

Files are uploaded via scheduled posts on the account.

All files uploaded using this method are automatically marked with the Posted tag in the Media Hub.

**Chat**

Files are uploaded by sending and then unsending them as a direct message to a specified user.

Requirements:

* You must provide a **User Link** — the profile URL of the recipient.
* The account must be able to message that user — either the user is subscribed to the account, or the account is subscribed to the user.

#### 3. Add Files

In the Add and Adjust Files section:

Drag and drop files into the upload area

* or
* Click the upload button to select files manually.

Once a file is added, a Tag Accounts field appears. Use it to tag other accounts if needed.

Limits:

* Maximum 50 files per upload
* Maximum file size: 4 GB per file

If a file exceeds the size limit, an error message appears next to it.

Remove invalid files before continuing.

The Start Uploading button becomes active once all errors are resolved.

#### 4. Upload in Progress

When uploading starts, a modal window displays the upload status.

**Important**:

* Do not close the modal while uploading.
* Clicking Cancel will stop the upload process.

**If the upload is cancelled**

* Files already uploaded are removed from the Adjust Files table.
* Files not yet uploaded remain in the table.

5. #### After Upload Completion

Once the upload process begins:

* You are redirected to the Recent Files tab.
* A toast notification confirms that the upload has started.

#### Recent Files Tab

The Recent Files tab shows a read-only list of files that were uploaded via OnlyMonster and their current processing statuses.

**Table**

The table includes the following columns:

* **File** — preview or icon, file size, and file name
* **Status** — current processing stage
* **Export date**

**Status**

The Status column reflects the current processing stage. Possible statuses:

| Status    | Description                          |
| --------- | ------------------------------------ |
| Uploading | The file is currently being uploaded |
| Uploaded  | The file was successfully uploaded   |
| Failed    | An error occurred during upload      |

## Permissions

Access to the Media Uploader requires the **Media Uploader** permission.

**First Iteration**

This is the first version of the Media Uploader.

Basic functionality is available now. Additional features will be added in future updates.
