File Drive Manager
The document changes.
The link does not.
File Drive Manager is the document manager integrated into your platform. Upload, organise and publish any document with a permanent URL — and when you need to update the file, every link pointing to it keeps working.
Everything in one place
Your document manager, inside Griddo.
A university manages a lot of documents: tuition fees, regulations, guides, syllabi, course sheets, reports, annual reviews... Until now, managing them meant keeping a shared folder in one place, links in another, and remembering to update every page whenever a PDF changed.
File Drive Manager lives inside the same platform where you already manage your web. Your documents, your folders, your URLs — all centralised, all connected to the rest of your ecosystem.
You will always find what you are looking for
Folders, filters and search. Your way.
Create the folder structure that fits your institution: by department, document type, academic year, or site. Move files between folders, rename them, and organise the library at your own pace.
When you need to find something, the search tool, file-type filters, and sorting options take you to the document in seconds.
- Nested folder structure (create, rename, move, delete)
- Navigate the folder tree from the side panel
- Search by file name
- Filter by type: PDF · DOC · XLS · CSV · ZIP · TXT
- Sort by name, upload date, or size
- Grid or list view, whichever you prefer
The update that does it all
Update the PDF. The pages update themselves.
Tuition fees change every year. Regulations get updated. Programmes get revised.
Every time that happened, the process was the same: upload the new PDF, copy the new URL, go into every page where it was linked and replace the link by hand.
With File Drive Manager, you just replace the file. The URL does not change. Every link pointing to that document keeps working, but now points to the new version. All pages are updated. Automatically.
- Replace the file while keeping the same URL
- All links update automatically
- See at a glance every page where the document is linked
- Download always available for the end user
Ready to publish instantly
Every document has its URL. Ready to publish.
Every file you upload to File Drive Manager automatically receives a permanent URL. Copy it with one click and use it wherever you need it: in a module on your website, in an email body, on an admissions landing page, or on an event microsite.
The document lives in Griddo. You decide where it is seen.
- URL generated automatically on upload
- Copy the URL with one click from the details panel
- Share or publish on any page or channel
- Public or restricted access depending on site configuration
More than a file
Every document, with its context.
Every file in File Drive Manager supports a readable title, alternative text, and tags — so your library is navigable by people, not just by file names.
Tags make cross-project organisation easy: a single document can sit in a folder while carrying tags from multiple projects or campaigns. File name, type, size, and last updated date are always visible.
- Descriptive title (independent of the file name)
- Alternative text
- Custom tags
- Type, size, and upload date — always visible

What's coming
The document manager that grows with you.
File Drive Manager already solves day-to-day document management. What comes next goes beyond storage.
Automatic AI summaries
The manager will automatically generate a summary of each document — so your team knows what it contains at a glance, and search becomes more precise without relying on the file name. 1
Document to web page
Structured documents (course programmes, syllabi, academic sheets) will be convertible directly into publishable web pages — with the same look and feel as the rest of your site, ready to publish from day one. 1
