# How Do I Upload a Document to the CI People Directory?

## This article explains how CI’s document upload feature works and how to attach files to profiles on the platform. Below is a walkthrough of how to upload documents, add helpful metadata, and ensure your files are stored and accessible where your team can find them.

**Step 1**: Navigate to the Relevant Page or Profile

Go to the profile where you want to attach a document.

**Step 2**: Locate the “Documents” Section

Within the selected profile, find the “Documents” panel, and locate the “Add Document” button. This section contains existing attachments and the option to add new ones.

**Step 3**: Click the “Add Document” Button

Select the “Add Document” button which opens a file selection panel box.

**Step 4**: Select Your File

Documents can be uploaded in two different ways:

- by uploading a file
- inserting a URL

If uploading via URL, copy and paste the document URL into the “Document URL” box.

If uploading a file, click “Click to Upload” and choose the file you want to upload from your device.

Supported file types include:

| PDF | TIFF |
| --- | --- |
| TIF | DOC |
| DOCX | XLS |
| XLSX | PPT |
| PPS | PPTX |
| PPSX | PUB |
| NRL |  |

Once file is selected, click “Open”. Add a title for your document if necessary.

**Step 5**: Managing Folders

To add a document to a folder while uploading, select the Folder dropdown menu. The default folder is “Documents Provided by Person”, which shows self-reported documents.

You can add a new folder by selecting “Add New Folder.

You can also create a new folder from the “Documents” screen, by clicking “Create New Folder” and following the same steps.

**Step 6**: Save Your Upload

Click “Save” once the document is uploaded. Your document will now appear in the list of attached files.

- Opens without issue when clicked
