Upload files to a stage

Choose a stage#

Files are attached to a project's stage, not the project itself. Open the project, scroll to the stages section, and pick the stage you want to upload to. If your project doesn't have stages yet, create one first, or pick a project type next time you create a project.

Once you click "Upload" on a stage, the upload dialog opens and you can drag-and-drop or pick files from disk.

Where files go#

The destination depends on your company's storage setting:

• Vellum's secure cloud storage (default). Files upload from your computer and appear in the stage automatically.
• Autodesk Revit Cloud. Files go to a folder inside the Autodesk hub and project your firm has connected.

From your point of view, both behave the same: the file appears in the stage's file list, marked as Pending review until someone reviews it.

Tips#

• Name files clearly — the filename is what reviewers see in the list.
• Re-uploading a file with the same name creates a new entry; older versions stay in the list with their own review history.
• If an upload fails partway, refresh and try again — incomplete uploads aren't auto-retried.
