Attach files and links to topics in your mind map to store data and quickly share relevant documents with your collaborators.

Web links you add to your mind map topics do not count towards your attachment limit. You can attach an unlimited number of web links. 

Files like JPEGs, PNGs, and PDFs you upload from your device to your mind map count towards your attachment limit. Personal user can upload a maximum of two files.
