The document uploader accepts file contents from your device’s picker. A cloud sharing URL or a shortcut that only points to a remote file is not the same as the underlying document.
Open the file in its source application and download or export an appropriate copy. Confirm that the copy opens locally and includes the intended pages. Keep the supported format, file-size limit, and filename limit shown by the upload form in mind.
Choose that copy from the uploader and review its filename and size. If the file is empty or unsupported, it will not be added. Do not paste a private cloud access link into the note as a substitute for the requested file.
Use the request’s upload action when answering a specific ask so the copy is linked correctly. If the source document changes later, clarify that a new version is needed through the team’s workflow; uploading a copy does not establish a live sync to the original cloud document. Keep the original source and the submitted version distinguishable for later review.
