# Executing the Import to Container Plug-in

This topic describes how to import documents into a container by using the Import to Container plug-in.
Note

- You cannot import documents into a container with security settings applied.
- The maximum size for a single document is 1 GB. The total size of the documents in the specified container must not exceed 1 GB.
- You can import documents into an existing container only if it is editable.
- Documents cannot be imported if the total container size exceeds 1.9 GB after import.

Procedure
1.
Select a file in the workspace.
2.
Click the [Import to Container] plug-in button in the toolbar or task toolbar.
The selected document(s) will be imported into a container.
Note

- When multiple documents are selected, documents are imported in the order selected for the thumbnail view and grid view, and in the top-down order of the list for the list view.
- If a container is included in the selected document(s), all documents will be imported into the container. If multiple containers are included, documents will be imported into the first container first.
- The imported documents are left in the workspace.
