1 year ago The form resubmission is general to at least dataset external tools, so a separate issue and something that goes away if/when this isn't a tool.
Having more progress/completion info and then a note to close the window and return to the dataset makes sense.
I don't think this should get swapped in as the default upload (you can't actually upload just one file with this unless it is alone in a folder) but it could be an option like DropBox/Globus. Time/interest permitting, any/all of those could potentially show up in the same Dataset window rather than as a separate tab.
W.r.t. next steps - a call or email, or a google doc, makes sense - basically getting a prioritized list of changes together would help.

I have been able to upload several ~5 GB files organized in several folders. However, I'm not sure how to proceed after successful file upload:
Maybe some instructions could be added, e.g., "You may now close this web browser tab" (or similar).
When refreshing the dataset landing page one needs to confirm the following message:
But after clicking the Continue button, a new DVWebloader tab is opened.
To see the uploaded file, I actually had to close the tab with the dataset landing page also, and then click into the dataset from the repository/collection landing page once more.
Depending on how this tool/feature is further developed, the comments above are possible irrelevant.
I guess the idea is that folder/file upload as now implemented in DVWebloader would be implemented so that a Dataverse installation admin could configure this kind of upload as the default, and depositors would simply click the usual upload button to upload folders/files this way. Another side is download. Will it work along the same lines? Maybe we can discuss further progress on email or a call. Thanks!
