How to add a File

ActiveDraft turns any file into a collaborative, easily accessible workspace!

There are two places you can upload your files: Files and Projects.

The Files page is best for individual files not tied to a group project or additional files.

Uploading to the Projects page is ideal for visibility within the full team:

  • Uploading additional files that are related
  • Visibility into multiple files with the project thread
  • Utilizing our many other collaboration abilities

In this article, we’ll dive into adding a file to the Files page. If you’d like to learn more about adding a file to the Projects you can do so here
