Managing Documents
Find, organize, filter, and manage your uploaded documents.
Document List
Your documents appear as a list on the My Documents page, showing:
- File name and type icon
- Access level badge (Personal, Team, Department, etc.)
- Upload date
- File size
Searching Documents
Use the search bar at the top of the page to find documents by name.
Type a keyword and results filter instantly. The search looks at file names.
tip
For searching by content (what's inside the document), use the AI chat instead: "Find documents about vacation policy"
Filtering
Filter your documents by:
| Filter | Options |
|---|---|
| Access Level | Personal, Team, Department, Organization, Confidential |

Tips
- Review your documents periodically — delete outdated files to keep your library clean
- Use appropriate access levels — don't make everything "Organization" unless it needs to be
- Remember: chat attachments ≠ documents — files sent in chat aren't saved to My Documents. Upload separately if you want to keep them
