Problem Description:
Assume
that you access a Microsoft SharePoint Server 2013 document library through a
computer that has Microsoft Office 2013 installed. When you try to upload
multiple documents to the document library, the Upload Multiple Documents
option is not available in SharePoint Server 2013.
Analysis:
-
Upload multiple documents is an important option which is present in MOSS2007,
SharePoint Server 2010, SharePoint Foundation 2010 as well so i am really shocked to see that why this option has been deprecated from SharePoint
2013.
Resolution/Workaround:
To
work around this issue, do one of the following to upload documents to the
SharePoint Server 2013 document library:
1)
Use
the Windows Explorer view
2)
Use
the SharePoint Server 2013 drag-and-drop functionality
How to use Explorer
View:
1)
Click
new document.
2)
In
the dialog box that appears, click Upload files using Windows Explorer instead.
3)
A
File Explorer window opens for that library.
4)
You
can then drag files from your computer into the File Explorer window.
Note: This option requires the Internet Explorer web browser and if
you are using Office 365, you’ll need to select Keep me signed in when you sign
in.
How to Use the
SharePoint Server 2013 drag-and-drop functionality:
1)
First,
open the library on your site.
2)
Then
find the documents on your computer that you want to upload, select them, and
drag them to the space in your library where it says, drag files here.
Note: If you don’t see the option to drag and drop files, install
the latest version of your browser software or Microsoft Office 2013.
This
feature requires either Office 2013 or the latest version of Internet Explorer,
Firefox, or Chrome.
Please
let me know in case of any queries/questions. I would be more than happy to
help you as well as resolves your issues, Thank you J
