Uploading files as a public user

In some DREs, not all users will have full permission to upload files directly to the workspace, in this case, they can use the Public Inbox. These users will know when they must use this route as they will be shown the following warning when trying to upload a file via the UI: PublicInboxWarning.png

Items which are uploaded into the Public Inbox must be approved by an “internal” user who has access to the Public Inbox; usually this will be the Workspace Administrator
