I am a long time user of 1PW, but now on trial for subscription service. I thought that I could save documents - like a driver license - to my 1PW account and access if from laptop, phone, etc. I do not see any way to upload a pdf or other file. Have searched forum, youtube, help menu, etc, etc. Please help.

    Ok, I was able to upload a document from the web view. Now that the menu option "document" is available, I got it to work. I swear that option was absent before. I tried several times. Oh Well. Now I will proceed to learn some more functions of the subscription service.

    Hi @spideysense! Welcome to the forum!

    Thank you for the update. I am glad to hear that you managed to upload a document on the website. For future reference, you can add a Document from the 1Password for Mac app as well, if you select the Document category from the File > New Item menu:

    [Request} Why is it not possible to add important files to the Software License category?
    Would be nice...to keep things together.

    You can add any information to 1Password. The option to link items is at the bottom of the Software Item. In 1Password 7 Documents took over where Attachments left off in 1Password 6. I tend to think of Documents as having a dedicated space to live in and you add a shortcut to it from the actual Software Item. https://support.1password.com/files/ * Note you must be in edit mode to add the linking.

    Could you let me know where things seem to be going wrong for you, and maybe I can suggest something to help, or the steps you're taking?
