# Why do my Data Parking cloud uploads show up in Data Transfers?

When you move files to a cloud account from Data Parking, the uploads are run by Data Transfers. You can close Data Parking and they finish in the background; open **More → Data Transfers…** to watch progress.

If the network drops or an account needs signing in again, the affected file is parked in Data Transfers with a plain-English reason, while the rest keep going. The source stays intact for anything that didn't upload, so fix the connection and send it again.
