Applying to Upper Tribunal directly after FTT reject leave to appeal

Hi Everybody
Wondered if anybody can advise how I ask the UT directly for permission for leave to appeal to UT?
Is it possible to do this online, in the same way that I appealed at FTT? I have the formal rejection from FTT to my request so want to ask the UT now.
Is there a link or portal where you start this process? Ive found an online UT1 form but it doesn't seem to allow me to save the document, nor is it in PDF form.
These probably seem like really stupid questions to people who are more tech savvy than me (which is probably most people to be fair :-)
I'm just getting a bit worried as I'm going to be away for a bit and won't easily have access to the paper copies of documents, only stuff Ive scanned onto my laptop, so I'm worried about time constraints if it isn't possible to do it online.
Any advice appreciated. Thanks in advance everyone
Best wishes

They applied the descriptor as though in a transactional situation, or rather, viewed on their perception of my dealing with professionals/medical staff and not in social interaction (ie making new friendships/sustaining ongoing social relationships etc)
The DWP had also awarded no points for tgat descriptor as the hcp had said I did not seem anxious, maintained eye contact, interacted well etc.
The tribunal used the same parameters in their statement of reasons to reject my appeal. Ergo, error in law
