How do I attach files to a task?

Open the task, click the Documents tab, and click Upload. You can also drag files onto the drop area or paste a screenshot.

Steps

  1. Open the task and click the Documents tab.
  2. Under Attach to, choose This task (only this task) or Project (all tasks) (shared with every task in the project).
  3. Upload in any of these ways:
    • Click Upload and choose one or more files.
    • Drag files onto the “Drop files here…” area.
    • Copy a screenshot and press Ctrl+V / Cmd+V while the Documents tab is open (not while typing in a box).
  4. A progress bar shows each upload. The file then appears in the list.
  5. To attach a web link instead (for example a Google Doc), click Add link, paste the address (it must start with http:// or https://), and optionally give it a name.

Good to know

  • The Documents tab shows two sections: This task and Project files (shared across all tasks).
  • The size limit per file is shown in the drop area (up to 50 MB, or less if your server has a lower limit).
  • Images, PDFs and plain text open in your browser. Other files download.
  • Viewers can see and download files but can’t upload.
  • Tip: go straight to the tab by adding #documents to the end of a task’s link.
