Attachments link a process to documents, links (web addresses) and videos. They explain the workflows in the diagram and help everyone involved to understand the process.

## Prerequisites [#prerequisites]

You are the **Process Owner**, **Process Contributor** or **Designer** of the process.

## Context [#context]

Attachments are attached either to the entire process, in the **Overview** tab in the **Attachments** section, or to an individual process step in the **List** and **Guide** tabs.

Attachments are visible to everyone who can see the process. PDF documents and images open in a preview, other documents can be downloaded, links open in the browser and Bpanda plays videos directly. See [Calling the process overview](/en/processes/understand-processes/calling-the-process-overview).

The following are possible:

- **Documents** up to 50 MB, several at a time as well
- **Links** to any web addresses
- **Videos** from YouTube and Vimeo, linked via their address

## How to proceed [#how-to-proceed]

1. Open the process page or the draft and select the **Overview** tab to attach to the process, or **List** or **Guide** to attach to a process step.
2. In the **Attachments** section, click the plus symbol and select **Documents**, **Link** or **Video**.
   - For **Documents**, your operating system's **Open** dialog appears. Select one or more files.
   - For **Link** and **Video**, enter the address in the dialog field.
3. Select **Save** to add the attachment.

   The attachment appears with the symbol for its type in the **Attachments** section.
4. To give an attachment a different name or a description, click ⋮ on the attachment.
