Calculations

Add attachments to a calculation

Attach supporting documentation, files, or external links to a sheet or cell within a calculation to keep all relevant information in 1 place.
You can attach supporting documentation to a sheet or an individual cell within a calculation. Attachments can be common file types or links to external websites. You are not limited to physical files and can add as many attachments as you need to a calculation.
A consolidated view displays all attachments used across your calculations in 1 place. Each attachment supports a maximum upload size of 120 MB. You can still upload files larger than 120 MB, but you must download them to view them, as the system doesn’t support online preview for these files.
Similarly, you can upload Excel files containing 250,000 cells or more, but you must download them to view them as the system doesn’t support online preview for these files either.
