Important changes to the way you upload documents in Aconex.
In the March 2026 release (beginning March 21), all users will be automatically switched to the new enhanced upload.
This update provides a modern, intuitive flow for uploading, with flexible upload templates. It also lays the groundwork for future upload improvements – enabling multiple file types to be registered under a single document.
We recommend you try out both the new enhanced upload and new bulk processing and let us know what you think. All other uploads are planned to be retired in the coming months.

You don't need to do anything. All users will be automatically switched to the new enhanced upload during the March release. We recommend you try the updated features and let us know what you think, as all previous upload options are planned to be retired soon.
You'll be able to switch back to your previously used method for a limited time, until the previous methods are retired.
Note: the new bulk processing option is only available from the new enhanced upload.
All other upload flows (classic upload, new upload, and classic bulk processing) are planned to be retired in the coming months. Make sure you subscribe to release notes to keep informed about these changes.
