# How to add an image, a document, a video, or a product brochure to your VKARD profile?

VKARD allows you to enrich your profiles by adding different types of content.  
There are **2 methods**:

### 🔹 1. **Custom links (with external hosting of documents)**
### 🔹 2. **Blocks (with documents hosted on VKARD)**

These contents can be added **to an individual profile** or **to a company** (which makes them visible on all profiles associated with that company)

---

## 1️⃣ Add a custom link

If you are using the **Free plan**, you can add external links to:

* A video (YouTube, Vimeo…)  
* A PDF hosted on Google Drive or Dropbox  
* A booking page  
* A professional website  
* Any publicly accessible resource

||| ℹ️ This method does not store any file on VKARD: only links are displayed on the profile.

---

### ➤ Add an external link: detailed steps

1. Go to https://dashboard.vkard.io  
2. Edit the **profile** or **company** where you want to add the link  
3. Scroll down to the **Custom links** section  
4. Click **Add a custom link**  
5. Fill in the fields:  
* **Title** (e.g.: Product brochure, Presentation video)  
* **URL**  
* **Icon** (optional)  
7. Save

|| The link will now be visible on the VKARD profile during the scan, or on all profiles of a company if you added it at the company level

### 📌 Important tips for external links

* Make sure your link is **public**  
* Test it in **private browsing**  
* Avoid links that require a login

* a video  
* a file (PDF, brochure, document…)

## 🗂️ Media management (images, videos, PDFs…)

All files uploaded via blocks are grouped in the **Media** section.

You can:

* view your files  
* upload new media  
* delete media  
* organize your library  

||| ⚠️ Important: deleting a media file from Media automatically removes the block referring to it, on all concerned profiles or companies.

## 📘 Profile vs Company — How does visibility work?

VKARD applies your additions depending on the selected location:

| Where do you add it? | Who sees the content? |
| ---- |
| **On a profile** | Only the concerned user |
| **On a company** | All profiles linked to that company |

### Examples

* You add a “PDF brochure” block on a **company** →  
  👉 All employees of this company will display the brochure on their VKARD profile.

* You add a “Booking page” link to **a profile** →  
  👉 The booking page will appear only on the concerned collaborator’s profile.
