Attach Documents
You can attach supporting documents (PDFs, images, contracts) to invoices when creating them. Files are stored on IPFS; a content fingerprint is recorded in your invoice record.
How It Works
- When creating an invoice, look for the Attach Document section
- Click or drag a file into the upload area
- The file uploads to IPFS automatically
- Once uploaded, you'll see a confirmation with a link to view the file
What Gets Stored Where
| What | Where | Who can see it |
|---|---|---|
| The file itself | IPFS (via Pinata) | Anyone with the link |
| Content fingerprint (CID) | Your invoice record on-chain | Only record owners |
The on-chain fingerprint proves a specific document was attached at creation time. It can't be changed after the fact.
Important Notes
- IPFS is public — anyone with the content link can view the file. Don't upload confidential documents unless you understand this.
- Uploading is optional. If you skip it, the invoice works the same way.
- There's no file size limit enforced by the app, but very large files may take longer to upload.
- The document link is visible to anyone who receives the invoice record (the factor, after factoring).
