Important Notes​

  1. The IMCE Files server is the single server used across all AOK Users. We need to make sure to upload images or files with proper naming conventions and folder structures to identify the uploaded assets.
  2. AOK Users cannot delete images or files once uploaded. You need to contact the administrator to delete the image.
  3. If you upload an image or file with the same name, it will be uploaded using the format image-name_0.jpg and will be incremented if the same image is uploaded again in the same folder. For example, if you upload 'image.png', it will be named 'image_0.png', 'image_1.png', and so on.
  4. While uploading an image, make sure it does not exceed the size of 400 KB to avoid performance issues for the systems that are loading the same image.
  5. Allowed image extensions are: png, jpg, jpeg, svg, webp, gif.
  6. While uploading a file, make sure it does not exceed the size of 20 MB to avoid performance issues for the systems that are loading the same file.
  7. The allowed file extension is pdf.
