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
