Dragging documents into the chat and timeline

In this article, we explain how to drag documents straight into the chat or the timeline to share them quickly.

You no longer always need to use the upload button to share a file. You can now simply drag a document from your computer into the chat window or into a post on the timeline. This works for you as an organisation admin, but also for every employee with access to the chat and the timeline.

Sharing a document in the chat

  1. Open the conversation where you want to share the document.

  2. Drag the file from your computer into the chat window.

  3. Release the file once the window highlights. The document is automatically added to your message.

  4. Add any additional text and click send.

Sharing a document on the timeline

  1. Click 'New post' at the top of the timeline.

  2. Drag the document into the post window that opens.

  3. As shown in the screenshot below, the document appears immediately as an attachment to your post.

  4. Finish writing your post and place it on the timeline.

Good to know

  • You can drag multiple documents at once. Each one is added as a separate attachment.

  • Dragging works alongside the existing upload button, so you can choose whichever way you prefer.

  • The supported file types are the same as for a regular upload.
