Entity Documents
View and manage documents linked to a specific talent, company, or contact from their profile's Documents tab.
Overview
Talent profiles and directory profiles (companies and contacts) have a Documents tab that shows only the documents linked to that entity. This provides a focused view — instead of browsing the entire library, you see just the files relevant to the person or organization you're working with.
Accessing the Documents Tab
- Open a talent, company, or contact profile
- Click the Documents tab in the tab bar
The tab label shows a badge with the total document count for that entity (including both normal and sensitive documents).
Tab Header
The Documents tab header shows:
- Document count — A file icon with the count of normal (non-sensitive) documents
- Sensitive count — A lock icon with the count of sensitive documents (only appears when there are sensitive documents)
- Sensitive toggle — Click the lock icon to unlock sensitive documents (requires the org password). Only appears when a password is configured.
- Upload button — Opens the upload dialog with the current entity pre-selected for auto-linking
Document List
Documents appear in the same row format as the central library list view:
- File icon or thumbnail — Color-coded by file type, or a real preview for images and Showmo-generated comp cards
- Filename — With a lock badge if the document is sensitive
- Metadata — File size, category, and source (when not "Upload")
- Action buttons — Download and a dropdown menu with Edit Details, Manage Links, Download, and Delete
All the same actions available in the central library work here — editing metadata, managing links, downloading, and deleting.
Uploading from a Profile
Clicking the Upload button in the Documents tab header opens the standard upload dialog. Documents uploaded this way are automatically linked to the current entity — no manual linking required.
This is the fastest way to attach a document to a specific talent or company.
Sensitive Documents
Sensitive documents linked to the entity are hidden by default. To reveal them:
- Click the lock icon in the tab header
- Enter the org password
- Sensitive documents appear in the list with a lock badge
The unlock session is shared with the central library — if you've already unlocked sensitive documents in the library, they're visible here too (and vice versa).
Empty State
When no documents are linked to the entity, a friendly empty state appears with an Upload button (for users with manage permission) to get started.
Tips
- Upload directly from profiles — Uploading from the entity's Documents tab automatically links the file, saving you a step
- Link existing documents — If a document is already in the library, use Manage Links from the central library to connect it to this entity instead of re-uploading
- One document, many entities — A contract linked to a talent also appears on their profile. Adding a link to a company from the library makes it show up on the company's profile too.
