# Forms - Saving files directly in the Lead field

We are always working to improve your experience and optimize lead management. Now, forms with file-type fields can save documents directly to the lead's record.

#### How does it work?

When configuring a form with a file upload field, you can link that field to a custom file-type field created in the Lead custom fields.

#### How to configure?

1. Create a custom field:<br>

* In the menu, go to system settings, select Custom Fields - Lead.
* Create a new field of the File type.\ <br>

2. Configure the form:<br>

* Go to the desired form.
* Add a field of the File type.
* Link that field to the custom field you created in the previous step.

* You will be able to access the lead, view and download the file whenever you need.\ <br>
