Discord file sharing

Checklist for when Discord file uploads fail

Check file size, format, network conditions, permissions, and server workflow before sending PDFs or creative assets through Discord.

What to check before sending a file

When a Discord upload fails, start by separating file size, format, connection quality, and channel permissions. The sender's device is only one part of the problem; members also need to find the file later.

If file size may be the issue, review the Discord file size guide first.

PDFs and creative assets need a place people can revisit

PDFs, design files, video assets, and recorded audio get buried quickly when they are only dropped into chat. A stable server-level sharing location reduces repeated resend requests.

Move recurring sharing into a server workflow

[DisCoRibute](https://discoribute.com) adds a file-sharing place to your Discord server through a bot. Check the upload flow, then expand through storage plans when the workflow fits your community.
