How to Modify Attachments

This task describes how to modify an ALM attachment.

When you open an attachment, ALM downloads the attachment to a local directory on your client machine and opens it in the associated application. After making changes to the attachment, you must save the attachment twice. First, save the local copy of your attachment in the application. Then upload the attachment to your ALM project.

To modify an attachment:

  1. Navigate to the Attachments page for the selected ALM record. For user interface details, see Attachments Page.

  2. Double-click the selected attachment. A local copy opens in the associated application.

  3. Modify the attachment.

  4. Save the changes in the application. This saves the local copy of your attachment.

  5. Close the attachment.

  6. In ALM, click the Upload button to upload the local copy to your ALM project.
