The Poppulo Harmony Platform allows you to upload files directly from your Media Library or computer and create links to them in your emails. Your readers can then download and view the file.
It's a particularly useful way to share key documents with employees that are unable to access other internal systems (e.g. your intranet); and can be very helpful during merger and acquisition activity when some employees are unable to access other channels. To upload a file into a communication and link to it, follow the instructions below.
