The File column

How to attach files to an item, and the three ways to get them into the cell.

2 min readUpdated

Attach files to an item using one of three methods: browse, drag and drop, or paste.

A File column can hold multiple attachments for each item. An empty cell shows the available options: "Click to browse, drop a file, or press Cmd+V to paste".

Adding Files#

  • Select the cell to open the file browser.
  • Drag a file from your desktop and drop it directly onto the cell.
  • Select the cell and paste a file from your clipboard. A screenshot on the clipboard is added as an image.

Managing What's There#

Open a filled cell to view all attached files. Each file has "Download" and "Remove file" options. Select "Upload more files" to add additional files without replacing the existing ones.

File columns support only the "is empty" and "is not empty" filters. This is useful for finding items that are still missing their required files.
