How to Download Client Selected Photos Using Offline Tool
Guide to copying client-hearted proof images from your local hard drive using the file utility.
Once a client completes their selection, copying those exact files from your hard drive for editing used to take hours. Eventbit's local file utility solves this by scanning your computer's storage directly from your browser, matching filenames, and copying them instantly without downloading a single byte.
How the Offline File Copy Utility Works
Eventbit uses the modern browser File System Access API to let you interact directly with your local files securely. The utility operates locally in your browser sandbox, meaning your raw images are never uploaded to the cloud during the copy process.
Step-by-Step Sorting Guide
1. Open the event details page, click the selection status dropdown menu, and select Sort Selected Photos.
2. The browser will ask for permission to read folders on your machine. Choose the local folder where you stored the high-resolution original camera files (RAW or JPEG).
3. Click 'Select Folder' and accept the security permission. Eventbit immediately scans the filenames in that folder, matches them against your client's favorite lists, and copies the matching original files into a new folder named SelectedImageswithin your directory. The entire process takes less than ten seconds, even for thousands of photos.
