CFC Sharing and Upload Management

The Custom File Classification Sharing and Upload Management page shows the current sharing status of CFC hashes and provides the option to manually upload them using image data. You can see the processing status for the existing Sharing configurations, and also manually upload image data through which file hashes can be generated and sent to the Netskope Tenant.

Known Limitation

Cloud Exchange validates the filename to prevent duplicate uploads, so same file cannot be uploaded multiple times using manual upload. If same content needs to be processed again, upload the file using a different filename.
