How to upload and edit documents in the document library
What is The Document Library?
The Document Library is a place for you to upload standard documents that will be sent to candidates or contacts on a regular basis.
Super Users can access the Document Library by clicking the cog icon in the top-right to open the Settings menu, then navigating to System Configuration > Document Library.
Documents uploaded on this page will be automatically attached to certain emails sent from Firefish, so you don't need to upload and attach them every time.
