Accessing M-Files Web

Note: This content is no longer updated. For the latest content, please go to the user guide for M-Files Online. For information on the supported product versions, refer to our lifecycle policy.

You can go to M-Files vaults also with M-Files Web. M-Files Web is a browser-based M-Files client that lets you use the basic M-Files functions.

There are two versions available: the classic M-Files Web and the new M-Files Web. The user interfaces for the two versions are almost the same as in M-Files Desktop. With the classic M-Files Web, see the Using M-Files Desktop User Interface section for more information about the user interface components. The new M-Files Web has its own user guide.

Note: For the new M-Files Web, the M-Files Online license is necessary.

You can get the address of M-Files Web in your organization from your system administrator.

Logging in to classic M-Files Web

  1. In your web browser, go to the M-Files Web address given by your system administrator or an M-Files consultant.
    Example: If the name of your vault is Sales Tracker, the address can be https://sales-tracker.cloudvault.m-files.com for cloud-based deployments or http://sales-tracker.mydomain.com for on-premises vaults. In your corporate network, the connection protocol can be HTTP instead of HTTPS.
  2. Enter your login credentials or select Log in with current Windows credentials.
  3. Optional: If you have access to many vaults, select the vault that you want to connect to.
    If you have access to only one vault, you are automatically connected.
You are now logged in and you see the M-Files home screen.
