hello vipers let's talk about how to
0:03
send attachments with vip cloud
0:06
so invite cloud attachments are sent as
0:09
links instead of as actual files that go
0:12
along for the ride with the email
0:14
uh there are a bunch of advantages to
0:17
this uh one of them is that you can
0:20
bypass those pesky
0:23
email attachment limits that you run
0:26
into when you're sending
0:27
emails where it's like 25 or 30
0:29
megabytes or something like that
0:31
as the
0:33
is the maximum file size for an
0:35
attachment and with ours you literally
0:38
don't have one because the file itself
0:40
isn't going along with the email
0:43
um it's more like a dropbox situation
0:45
when uh when it comes to people
0:47
downloading the files additionally
0:50
uh that makes it a more deliverable
0:52
email because
0:54
attachments are a little bit uh
0:56
suspect but
0:58
according to certain
1:00
email systems because they don't know if
1:02
there might be a virus or something like
1:03
that
1:05
and and also you know when people have
1:08
downloaded your attachment using uh our
1:11
system because it's a trackable link
1:12
like all links that you send with vip
1:15
cloud
1:16
additionally
1:18
you are able to determine where that
1:20
attachment is displayed in the email
1:23
body itself so you can have it as a part
1:25
of a call to action or something along
1:27
those lines it's more difficult to miss
1:30
so um when you're looking to send
1:33
an attachment with vip club
1:36
you have to bear in mind what email
1:38
template your builder you are using so
1:41
if you are using
1:43
the standard rich text
1:45
uh template kind of like this
1:49
um
1:50
it's quite easy so you can say like
1:56
download the file here
2:00
insert it
2:02
and so when you are going to uh up so
2:04
you get to determine if you have already
2:07
uploaded
2:08
this file
2:10
to the system or if it's one that you
2:12
are going to be uploading right now if
2:14
it's one that's already in the system
2:15
you can simply look for in your content
2:16
right here
2:18
search content upload it right there but
2:20
if it's one that you don't already have
2:21
in the system hit the green plus button
2:23
right here
2:38
and then here you can say what the text
2:40
is that you want
2:42
uh so you can give it the
2:43
the file name right there or um or you
2:46
could also make it in something like
2:52
add editor and then right there
2:55
and then you're able to send that that
2:56
link right there will once they click it
2:59
it'll automatically download the file
3:02
additionally um it's a little bit
3:04
different in the html builder so um for
3:09
that you actually want to go into your
3:12
content
3:13
see that it's downloads we got this or
3:15
see that's already been uploaded rather
3:17
you can see this has been uploaded
3:20
git share link by the way you can use
3:23
this to share the attachment with
3:26
with people in other ways you can text
3:27
it things like that
3:29
but right here i just copied that with a
3:32
ctrl c you can also do this right here
3:35
right click copy
3:37
and then go to your templates
3:41
go into your html template
3:44
and then you just simply insert it as a
3:46
link
3:47
um what's cool with html builders you
3:49
can also make it to a button or
3:50
something like that um so that's what
3:53
i'm going to do right here
3:54
i'm going to drag a button over here
3:56
click on it to edit
4:00
paste it right there we can actually
4:03
right click
4:04
and paste
4:06
and then
4:14
and then there we go then they will see
4:16
that right there they can click it
4:17
download their file
4:19
and again you will know
4:21
uh through your uh through your link
4:23
alerts
4:25
that they have actually downloaded that
4:27
file when they say they have so another
4:30
advantage to
4:31
using downloadable links as opposed to
4:33
traditional
4:35
file attachments
4:37
hope that helps thank you
