Working with databases and clients

In Admin Console, click the Databases tab to view, sort, and search uploaded databases. Click the down arrow to the right of a database to open, close, pause, resume, download, remove, permanently remove, rename, and show the encryption password for the database.

To download a database, see Downloading databases.

To manage client users connected to the databases:

1. In Admin Console, click Databases.

2. In the Clients pane:

   • Select the checkbox next to Claris ID to select all users. You can also select specific users and sort by Claris ID user name, client, or sign-in (session duration).

   • Click Disconnect to disconnect selected users. Enter an optional message to send to users and specify a delay time. (The default is two minutes.)

   • Click Send Message to send messages to selected users (for example, if you plan to pause the database they are connected to).

Notes 

• After you delete a database, it might take some time for the Dashboard to update the used and remaining space for FileMaker Data Storage.

• Before you download a database, make sure you have the encryption password for the database. See About encryption passwords.
