You can easily attach PDFs to any Spectora inspection as a report or as "Additional Documents." This feature allows you to include important information, such as outside reports for mold, permits, or extra documentation, directly within the inspection.
In this guide, we'll show you how to add these PDFs to your inspections step-by-step, so you can provide your clients and agents with all the necessary information in one place.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do the clients/agents receive an email after each document is uploaded to the inspection?
They do not! The only time they would receive additional emails is if you re-publish the reports or make changes to the inspection details (like date or time) which would necessitate a new agreement.
If you have any questions or feedback, write into our chat bubble or email support@spectora.com!
