Plant ApplicationsUpload a Document
About this task
Using Route Editor, you can add a document that contains reference material to perform an operation (for example, circuit diagram, standard operating procedure). To do so, you must first upload the document, and then attach it to the appropriate route.
When you upload a document, it is stored in a document store application named Apache CouchDB. You can use only a PDF format document.
To specify the size limit of the document, you can modify the property value
maxFileSizeToUploadInMb in the
route-app-prod.yml file. You can only specify integer
values.
Note: Documents more than 100 MB in size may affect
the performance based on the internet speed.
