Attachments

Attachments in a task

You can perform the following actions on attachments: attach a new file, preview, download to your computer, describe, replace, sign, convert to PDF, view previous versions and edit (for text files and spreadsheets).

Working with files

In the top-left corner of an open task there is a Files button. It opens a window from which you attach, replace, download and convert files to PDF (if they are DOCX). The same window also opens from the actions menu → Files.

  4. Click Send. The files are attached to the task and everyone involved in the task receives an email about the new files.

When the system is opened on a phone, camera and voice recorder buttons are also shown when attaching a file. The recording is attached to the task.

File tags

You can put tags on files – when you first attach them or later.

When attaching:

Tags when attaching

After the file is attached:

  1. Click the file and select Details.
  2. Click + next to the Tags field.
  3. Select the tag and click Save.

Tags in the file details

You can filter tasks with attached files that have a certain tag in the standard way – with the tag filter.

Each attached file has a unique number by which it can be addressed and opened. To copy the address, open the file's Details and click Files. Paste the address with Ctrl + V into another task, a file or even another system.

To not only reach the file but also open it for viewing, add ?view at the end of the address:
