Can I navigate away while a video is uploading?
Yes. The upload keeps going in the background, with its progress in the sidebar on every screen, and a failure stays in the bell until you read it.
1. The upload isn't tied to the composer you started it on
Leave the composer, open the calendar, check the inbox. The upload keeps running in the background regardless of what's on screen.
2. A progress indicator that follows you
A persistent indicator in the sidebar shows the real upload percentage, live, on every screen in the product.
3. A failure tells you, wherever you are
If the connection drops or the file is refused, a notice names the file and the reason, on whatever screen you are on. You don't have to go back to the composer to find out.
4. It stays in the bell until you read it
The sidebar line clears after a few seconds, but the failure notice does not dismiss itself, and it stays listed under the bell. Come back later and the reason is still there. Add the file again from the composer or the Files page.
