Adding Files to Profiles

There may be files you'd like to add to a person's profile in Elvanto for safekeeping and quick reference. We'll guide you through how to add a file to a person's profile, manage the file, and view the Activity log so you can see how the file has been interacted with. Files added to profiles will not show in the Member area.  

File Limits

Files uploaded to profiles will not count toward the regular Files area limit of 10GB as these areas are separate.

  2. On the left sidebar of the profile, you'll find your files under the Files heading.
