How do I upload documents to my canopy account?

The Client Portal lets you upload files from your computer or phone to Canopy so you and your planner can access them. Once uploaded, your planner will get a notification that you added a new file. Upload files with a few clicks, or by dragging and dropping the files you want to upload.

Rename or Delete an Uploaded File

After you've uploaded a file, a 10-minute timer displays next to the uploaded file. Clients have 10 minutes to rename or delete a file. After 10 minutes have passed, you will need to contact your planner to make any changes. This feature stops confusion for your planner and helps them address your files.

2. Click the in-line Rename button to edit the file name.

You may need to reload the web page if you do not see this option. Otherwise, the 10-minute window may have passed.

Please note, the timer will not reset. The ten minutes start from the time of the original upload.

5. Click on the in-line Trash icon to delete the file.
