  2. After composing your message, upload your document from your desktop or drag and drop them into the Digify panel. 

  3. Customize your security settings for your document in terms of Access, Permissions, Watermark and Expiry. You can control who is able to view your document, restrict print or download, embed a watermark and set an auto expiry. 

  4. Select "Insert Link" to attach the document as an embedded link. Send the email as usual. 

Find out if your attachments were viewed 

  1. After sending your attachment, select the Digify icon located at the top right corner of the respective email.

Unsend your attachments anytime
