Files
Adding Files & Links to Projects and Tasks
Whether it’s a file from your device or a URL you want to reference, attaching it to a project or task works the same simple way, and both live in the same Files section afterward.
Uploading a File to a Project
Files attached to a project are visible to everyone with access to it, so it’s the right place for anything the whole project team needs.
To upload a file to a project:
- Open the project and go to its Files section.
- Click Upload.
- Select the file from your device.
- Wait for the upload to finish.
Uploading a File to a Task
Files attached directly to a task keep task-specific material close to the work itself, rather than mixed in with everything else on the project.
To upload a file to a task:
- Open the task and go to its Files section.
- Click Upload.
- Select the file from your device.
- Wait for the upload to finish.
Adding an External Link
Not everything is a file; sometimes what you need to reference is a URL. PMS lets you attach links the same way you’d attach a file.
To add a link:
- Open the project or task and go to its Files section.
- Click Add Link.
- Paste the URL; if you leave off “https://”, it will be added automatically.
- Give it a label, or leave it blank to just show the URL itself.
- Save
Good to know:
- View-only users (people given visibility but not full membership; see Setting Project Visibility) can’t upload files or add links.
- File uploads count against your organization’s storage; links don’t, since they just point elsewhere. Task files and project files share the same overall storage quota.
- Links live alongside uploaded files in the same list; there’s no separate “Links” area to check.
