A ticket can carry the source document behind it — a service report, work order, or inspection certificate. Use this article to attach a document to a ticket so it can be reviewed and downloaded later.
Adding attachments is limited to the consultant role. Once attached, the file can be downloaded by consultant and client roles. See Download a ticket’s file.

Attach a document while adding a ticket

The most common way to attach a file is to upload the document and create the ticket from it in one flow.
1

Upload the document

Select Upload Document and choose the file. The uploader accepts PDFs (up to 5 MB).
2

Tag the pages as a Ticket

Lift AI walks you through the PDF’s pages so you can mark which ones make up the ticket. Tag the document as a Ticket.
3

Fill in and save the ticket

Complete the ticket form and save. The uploaded document is attached to the new ticket as its primary file. See Create a ticket.

How attachments behave

  • Primary document — each ticket has one primary attachment, which is the file offered for download on the ticket.
  • PDF page numbers — a PDF attachment is linked to a specific page. A page number is required for PDF attachments and is not allowed on non-PDF files such as images.
  • Multiple files — a ticket can hold more than one attachment.
In the flow above you fill in the ticket yourself; the file is simply attached. Tickets that Lift AI creates automatically from documents it processes are instead marked processed by AI — see Check a ticket’s data status.
To retrieve a file already attached to a ticket, see Download a ticket’s file.
