Hi, I can't find it documented anywhere - but is it correct that we're not able to attach .doc files? Is there a reason/recommended way around this please?

Hi Oscar
Did you try enabling this type of attachment from your Chat dashboard?

  1. Sign in as a Chat admin.
  2. Open the Chat dashboard.
  3. Navigate to Settings > Account > File sending.
  4. Then, add .doc as a file type

Thank you!

Hi Liza, 


as I understand, in the new Messaging function (since 2024) there is no differentiation between the doc file types? 
As far as I could find, it's either allowing all file attachments or disallowing them; there was no option of allowing PDF, JPG, PNG and disallowing DOC, XLS files

Hi HashHub, 
My instructions were for Chats not Messages. I still see Settings > Account > File sending on my Chat dashboard.
