Attach media files as inspection instructions
Learn how to attach media files as inspection instructions via the web app and the mobile app.
Why attach media files as inspection instructions?
Depending on how you would like to set up the template, the instruction response type is a great way to share critical information and how-to guides or add additional context so team members can perform inspections with more in-depth knowledge. On top of showcasing instructions in a few sentences or paragraphs, you can also attach media files in the form of images or PDF files to communicate more visually.
What you'll need
You can upload an image file or a PDF file of up to 20MB.
