Request File

Request has a workflow similar to sending a Package in MOVEit Transfer. The main difference comes when the recipient opens the posted request in his inbox and clicks Reply. The reply message expects files attached (or dragged and dropped) to the message.

Send a Request

Send requests when you want other users to share files or messages with you through your organization's MOVEit Transfer instance.

Sending a Package to Unregistered Recipients

If you sent a package to an unregistered recipient (that is, recipients that are not MOVEit users) you might be prompted to provide a password. The Provide Password page opens.

On the Provide Password page, make a selection:
- Use Suggested Password
  If you select this option, send the suggested password to the recipient.
- Type Custom Password
  If you select this option, follow the requirements and type a custom password two times. Send this password to the recipient.

Important: You must provide the password to the unregistered recipients, by sending it as a separate email, phone call, FAX, etc.in accordance with your organization's security policy.
