Add attachments to emails

Last updated: February 23, 2026

Available with any of the following subscriptions, except where noted:

You can attach files in one-to-one sales emails sent from a record in your HubSpot CRM. You can also attach a document to a sales email template using the documents tool.

Please note:

  • To improve deliverability and email load times, attachments aren't supported in marketing emails. Instead, you can link to a file from your file manager.
  • There's a file size limit of 20 MB for files attached to sales emails. If the total size of all attachments exceeds this limit, the email will fail to send, with an error message of "There was an issue sending your email."
  1. In your HubSpot account, navigate to CRM > Contacts.
  2. Click the name of the contact you want to email.
