Restriction: This feature is available only in Premium groups, Enterprise groups, and legacy Free groups.
To add a photo or photos to an album:
- Go to the Photo Albums page.
Desktop browser: On the group’s website, in the left menu, click Photos.
Mobile device: At the bottom of a group page, tap the More icon and then tap Photos on the More menu.Note: If you do not see a Photos entry on the menu, then the Photos feature is disabled for that group, members are not allowed to view files, or the group is a Free group that was created after August 24, 2020.
- On the Photo Albums page, click or tap the thumbnail of the album you want to add photos to.
- On that album’s page, click or tap the Add Photos button.
- In the Upload Photos popup:
- Drag and drop an image file, or multiple files, to the popup, or click or tap the Browse button and select the image or images you want to upload.
- If desired, in the Description field, enter a brief description of the photo. If you are uploading more than one photo, the description will be applied to each photo.
- If you want to send a system-generated email notification about the upload to group members, select the Notify Members checkbox. The email notification will contain a link to the photo and will have the #photo-notice system hashtag. If you are uploading multiple photos, only one email notification is sent, with a separate link for each photo.
- Click or tap the Add button.
Note:
- If the Add Photos button is not available, one of these situations applies:
- The group has reached its storage limit.
- The album’s owner does not allow other members to add photos to the album.
- Members are not allowed to add photos to the group.
- The size limit for an uploaded photo is:
- 100MB in legacy Free groups
- 1GB in Premium and Enterprise groups
- The system uploads at most five photos at once. If more than five photos are selected to be uploaded, the system uploads them in groups of up to five at a time. This grouping avoids overloading the user's connection and the Groups.io server.
