# Attach File Uploads to Tasks

**Purpose:** Explain how to configure a form with File Upload fields so that uploaded files are automatically attached to the created Asana task. This feature is available in the **Premium version** of the plugin.

---

#### 1. When to Use This Feature

Use this when form submissions include documents, images, or other files that need to be accessible directly from the Asana task. Examples:

- Applicants upload resumes, which get attached to review tasks.
- Customers upload invoices, contracts, or proofs.
- Teams upload screenshots or media for creative requests.

---

#### 2. How It Works

1. Add one or more **File Upload** fields to your Gravity Form.
2. In your Asana feed settings, find the **Attachments** section (this section only appears if your form contains a File Upload field).
3. Check the box for **Attach uploaded files to task**.
4. When the feed runs, any files uploaded to the form will be automatically attached to the created Asana task.

#### 3. Tips & Best Practices

- Only enable file uploads on feeds where you truly need them, to avoid cluttering tasks.
- Large files may take longer to upload—test with your expected file types.
- Clearly label File Upload fields on your form so users know what to submit.
- For security, restrict allowed file types to only those necessary for your workflow.
