How do I update an existing File (Version update)?

Modified on Wed, 29 Mar 2023 at 02:49 PM

Policy Passport offers the functionality to update your existing files you have distributed via Policy Passport. Instead of creating a whole new file, you can simply update it to a new version as explained below.


Please note: It is important to complete a Version update of your File in one session. Stopping off or starting a new Version update in another browser tab or computer will result in duplicated files published to your users. Have all the relevant information at hand when starting the process.
