Uploading media using the Clearance Uploader - Clearance

You can use the Genetec Clearance™ Uploader application to automatically upload videos, media, and other file types without manually logging into Clearance. Uploaded files are searchable and can be added to cases. The Uploader automatically resumes the upload process after an interruption, making it a great solution when uploading larger files or a large selection of files.

To download media from a body-worn Camera:

1. Download the files to your client workstation by completing the following steps:
   1. (Optional) Click the icon to start the Clearance Uploader agent.
   2. Dock your body-worn Camera.
      Media files are automatically downloaded from the camera and saved to your client workstation. (The media files can be found in C:\ProgramData\AppData\Local\Genetec Clearance\data\files).
      Tip: Status LEDs on the dock indicate when download activities are in progress.
      After the download completes, the media files are deleted from the camera.

      NOTE: The camera tile in the Monitor page turns green after the download completes to indicate that the camera can be removed from the dock.

To automatically upload media to your Clearance account:

1. The media files are uploaded from your client to your Clearance account.
   Depending on your defined settings, one of the following occurs:
   • If no schedule is specified, the media files are uploaded immediately to your Clearance account. During upload the following states can occur: Uploading, In Progress, Completing, Completed, Calculating, and Pending.
   • If an upload schedule is specified, the media files are automatically uploaded to the Clearance account at the deferred schedule time. Scheduled uploads are useful when using a multi-dock or when uploading media from multiple devices.
   • If a sync folder is enabled in the configuration settings, any files put in the sync folder are uploaded immediately.
   After the media files upload completes, the media files are deleted from the client workstation.

   NOTE: You can set up or change an Upload schedule or Sync folder in the Settings section of the Clearance Uploader agent. You must have administrator access to view or change these settings.
