Overview
To use the ActiveTransfer web client, you must first log in using the ActiveTransfer Server instance URL and your user credentials. The email you received from the ActiveTransfer administrator when your account was created contains the information you need to log in to the ActiveTransfer web client.
As an ActiveTransfer administrator, create an HTTP or HTTPS listener port in the ActiveTransfer Server or ActiveTransfer Gateway instance for any user to access the web client user interface. For example, in Listeners section, Add listener, provide a listener name, select protocol HTTP, and enter 4444 as port number. As an ActiveTransfer web client user, you can now access the web client user interface by using the URL http://localhost:4444/.
The web client starts and displays the files and folders on the ActiveTransfer Server that you can work with. The options available on the menu bar and context menu are defined by the ActiveTransfer Server permissions granted to you by the administrator.
Important:
If you do not have permission for an activity assigned to your user account, the controls and menu commands will not be available to you. Consult your ActiveTransfer administrator for additional permissions.
