Media & links
- Docs support images, GIFs, and video media, which can be uploaded from the main toolbar or pasted directly into the doc.
- You can also share links, which will display inline:
Our Docs also support internal links, which you can use to share messages, media, and even other docs within your doc. Give it a shot!
You can also spice up your docs with embedded forms.
- Forms are fully-customizable multi-entry questionnaires. Perfect for gathering lots of types of information from your members.
- Polls are lightweight, single-question forms. Polls support multiple choice and multiple select question types—perfect for fun, simple questions.
Odds & ends
You can use many other features in your docs, like @mentioning server members, roles, or groups or pointing readers to different channels and threads with the # prefix. These will help you ensure the right people see your docs and make sure those people know where they need to go from there.
