Add Custom Datasheets

How to upload and manage your organization's own datasheets.

Custom datasheets let you include documents that aren't in the standard parts catalog when building a submittal package. Custom datasheets you add are shared with everyone in your organization.

Add a custom datasheet

  1. Go to Custom Datasheets from the Materials Submittals sidebar.
  2. Select Add Datasheet.
  3. Enter a Display name for the datasheet.
  4. Select a File to upload.
    • Only PDF files are accepted, up to 25 MB.
  5. Optionally, fill in Manufacturer, Part family name, Part number, and Description to help others find it later.
  6. Select Save.

You can select Clear Form to reset the fields, or Cancel to close the dialog without saving.

Manage your custom datasheets

The Custom Datasheets page lists every datasheet your organization has added, with its manufacturer, model, part number, display name, and file name. For each one you can:

  • Select View to open the file.
  • Select Edit to change its details or replace the uploaded file. The dialog shows the Current file with a link to view it, and a Replace file field for uploading a new one. If you don't choose a new file, the existing one is kept.
  • Select Delete to remove it permanently.
