Upload Photos
Objective
To upload photos to albums in the Photos tool.
Things to Consider
- Required User Permissions:
- 'Standard' level permissions or higher on the project's Photos tool.
- Additional Information:
- Only the following file types can be uploaded into a photo album: .jpg, .jpeg, .tif, .tiff, .gif, .png, .x-png, .bmp
Note: While you can upload TIFF files, you will not be able to view them in Procore. - Photos can also be uploaded into Procore using a project-specific email address. See Email Photos (Inbound).
- When new photos are uploaded to the album or existing photos moved to a 'Private' album, they also become 'Private.'
- Larger file sizes (over 5mb) may time out when uploading. If you experience an upload timeout, reduce the file size (for example, resize the image in an image editor), check your network connection and retry the upload.
