Download more than 100 documents

A new bulk download option lets you download more than the previous limit of 100 documents.

The new Download via Queue option in the Select files to download dialog box lets you download documents by creating a zip file and adding them to a queue. This method can accommodate more than 100 files at a time. The Direct download option is not available when you have selected more than 100 files. Fields that specify the title and maximum zip size of the download queue also have been added to the Select files dialog box. You can also specify whether to require a password to the zip file and to include the document metadata spreadsheet in the download.

A new option on the More menu, Manage download queue, opens the Manage download queue page where you can see the download title, status, number of files and the documents. You can also download the documents from this page.
