Documents

The Documents module allows you to write or upload documents directly to the project.

Remarque

Please note that this module only allows you to manually write or upload documents directly to a project. For more advanced functionalities, please take a look at the file storages integrations.

Document index

To use the Documents module, make sure it is enabled in the Project settings of your project (Project settings → Modules).

Once it is enabled, you can navigate to the Documents module in the sidebar of your project to get to the Documents index that lists all available documents:
