# Providing Files to a Tenant

A service provider can provide files, that are uploaded to the vSAN, to a tenant. For help in the initial upload of files to the parent vSAN, see: [**Uploading Files to the vSAN**](/run-the-platform/storage/uploading-files-to-vsan.md)

## Provide a File to a Tenant

1. From the top menu, navigate to **Tenants** > **List**.
2. **Double-click** on the desired **tenant**.
3. Click **Add File** on the left menu.
4. Select ***File Type*** from the dropdown list (HINT: you can select --ALL-- to get a listing of all files available, regardless of type; this will include \*.raw files(VM disk images) from the parent VDC.)
5. **Select a file** from the dropdown list.
6. Click **Submit** (bottom of page).

The process is near-instant as it is done with a branch command. The file is now available to the tenant within their own [**Files**](/run-the-platform/storage/uploading-files-to-vsan.md) section.
