Attachments in chat

Attach a file to a message in any room, workstream or direct message. Everyone in the chat can open it, and Harmony Agent can read it when you ask about it.

Attach files

  1. Choose the paperclip in the composer, or drop files onto it.
  2. Add a message if you like, then send.

You can attach up to 8 files at a time, each up to 50 MB.

What you can attach

Open an attachment

Choose an attachment to preview it. Spreadsheets show as a table and PDFs page by page. From the preview you can share it, comment on it, open it on its own or download it.

Ask Harmony Agent about a file

Mention the file in your question, for example @Agent which metric grew fastest in October metrics.csv? Harmony Agent reads the attachment and answers from it, and can chart a spreadsheet's figures.

FAQs

Where do attachments go after the chat? They stay with the message. To keep a file for the whole workspace, upload it on the Assets page or add it to the Company Wiki.
