How to add a File upload question

Markdown

View as Markdown

File upload lets people attach a file from their device. Use it for resumes, photos, PDFs, or any document you need with the submission. In question settings you can steer which kinds of files make sense for that form.

1. Add it

In Build, click Add a question, then choose File upload. See How to add questions.

2. On the form

The field is on the canvas. Question settings opens so you can write the prompt, add hint text, and mark it required.

3. What it is for

People choose a file from their device. Typical uses: job applications and anything that needs a document.

4. Edit and require

Click the field to change the wording. Hover it to duplicate or delete. Required questions show a red asterisk. Optional ones do not.

5. Ask AI

In create a form with AI, describe the form and name this type. On a form you already have, open Chat to Edit (the pencil next to Add a question) and ask in a sentence.

Example:

Add a file upload for a PDF resume.

6. Read the draft

The helper replies with a Draft card. Each field shows its type. Check that File upload is in the list. Click Create this form when you want it. Close if you were only trying a prompt. That does not add a form.
