# My Files

### Virus Scanning

All uploaded files are virus scanned and Scan status is provided. Any infected or potentially dangerous file uploads are automatically removed and cannot be downloaded.

Files will have any of the following AV scan statuses.

| **Pending**  | The file is waiting to be scanned.                                                           |
| ------------ | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Clean**    | The file has been scanned and is clean.                                                      |
| **Unknown**  | The scan status of the uploaded file is not known.                                           |
| **Refused**  | The virus scanner refused to scan. This can happen if password protected files are uploaded. |
| **Infected** | The file is infected and not safe.                                                           |
| **Scanning** | The file is being scanned                                                                    |

### Virus Notifications

When a file upload is found to be infected notifications are sent to an administrator.

The virus notification email can be specified by a System Administrator in the system settings.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://yudu-sentinel.gitbook.io/sentinel-documentation/resources/my-files.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
