A shared drive/folder is required in order to share documents between Amazon Workspace (AWS) and your local computer (or vice versa). The shared drive/folder will have to be installed in both AWS and your local computer. Steps below:

 

1. Installing WorkDocs on AWS

• In your assigned AWS, open the installation link below using any web browser:
  • https://d3f2hupz96ggz3.cloudfront.net/win/AWSWorkDocsDriveClient.msi
• Once AWSWorkDocsDriveClient.msi has been downloaded, open the file and finish the installation wizard 

2. Signing into WorkDocs on AWS

• After the installation has been completed, the setup window will appear

• Do not add a URL. Select enter a WorkSpaces registration code which has been provided to your agency by MCT

• Enter your provided registration code and select next

• Sign in with your credentials which are the same as your AWS credentials

 

3. Configuring WorkDocs

After signing in, you will be prompted to create a directory for the syncing files. 

• The setup wizard will create a default directory for you or you can select a different location

• Select sync all files and folders from WorkDocs

 

 

 

NOTE: After you have completed the install, sign in, and configuration of WorkDocs on your AWS, repeat the same steps on your local computer as well.
