Hello,

I think it would be a great if youc ould allow users to attach files to tasks during task creation. Often times, tasks are created for task owners to review documents that it would be very convenient to have attached to the task when the owner receives an email notification or opens the task in HubSpot.

Thanks,

James P.

Hello,

Maybe to see eventually. Link tasks with their emails or comments. Difficult to find when we write an email and we create a follow-up task they are dissociated. Thank you 🙂

I totally agree with you guys.

This is very important. In most the cases when you want to assign a task for one of your team members you should support it with files and documents.

Adding a google drive is a work around but still does not save the issue.

Please get it incorporated the soonest.

</div>

I agree with this idea! Shouldn’t be a huge dev to add attachments to tasks, as they are available on eg. notes.

Agreed, our team would love the ability to add attachments (internal emails, documents, etc).

Why are attachments available for all the other methods (notes, logs, deals, meetings)?

We are using google documents were appropriate.

This is important for our team. We currently use this function in Salesforce and have been contemplating adding on the sales hub to replace SF.

This seems like an obvious solution, and is already a function for emails. Our team would like to be able to attach files for tasks that require reviewing or signing documents. Currently, our work around is uploading a document & linking to it within the task body.

Yes. This would be of great help.  
How many upvotes are needed for HS to make this happen?

Is this still not an option?!? It makes no sense to have to send a separate email with attachments. This request has been open for years.

When creating a new task, we need an option to attach a document/s inside this task.

Agreed! This is very much needed on my end as well! 90% of the time when I am creating and assigning a task to someone, I have a attachments that are a key part of that task.
