The Upload file template lets learners upload files, such as documents, photos or videos. You can ask for up to 5 files, and let learners add a comment to each file.
Setting it up
You set up this template in the left panel and directly in the preview in Studio. The numbers in the screenshots match the numbers in the text.
In the left panel
Each file upload has its own settings, under File 1, File 2 and so on.
1. Optional (checkbox)
Lets learners continue without uploading this file.
When it is unchecked, the upload button shows a * to show it is required.
2. Allow document, image or video files (checkboxes)
Choose which types of files learners can upload.
Allow document files: for example .pdf, .doc, .docx, .ppt, .pptx, .xlsx and .xls.
Allow image files: for example .jpeg, .jpg, .png and .gif.
Allow video files: for example .mp4, .mov and .avi.
3. Enabled (checkbox), under Comment
Lets learners write a comment with the file they upload.
4. Placeholder
The text in the empty comment field, for example "Anything that went differently?".
5. Max characters
The maximum number of characters learners can type in their comment.
đ§ Be careful
At least one file upload needs to be required (not optional) for the template to work correctly.

Why use the Upload file template?
Learners can hand in an assignment, exam or report that a trainer or manager grades.
It boosts engagement, for example with a challenge where store employees share a photo or video of their best holiday gift package idea.
The best ideas can later be shared with the rest of the team.
