File Retention
Colabmacs should not be used as a long-term file storage solution. Facility administrators may set policies to regularly clean up old attachments. If you need to keep files for an extended period, be sure to download and store them elsewhere.
Colabmacs may purge attachments associated with requests that are deleted or closed after a certain time (typically ~ 1yr).

Below is the list of allowed file types. If you attempt to upload a disallowed file type, you will receive a 422 error message. One method to get around this is to .zip the file before uploading.
