An attachment is any file that is included with your page. Images, word documents, presentations, PDFs, multimedia and sound files are some examples of attachments. Attachments are useful when you want to share information that exists in another file format. Read more in the Attachment Overview.

To create a new version of an existing attachment, simply upload an attachment with the same filename.

The existing file will be kept as 'Version x', and can be accessed from the page's 'Attachments' view.

Some additional notes:

• You cannot remove specific versions of an attachment — if you remove an attachment, all versions will be removed as well. (See feature request CONF-3079.)
• You cannot revert to a previous version of an attachment. (See feature request CONF-1943).
• By default, attachments and their versions are stored in the <confluence_home>/attachments directory. (See Attachment Storage Configuration in the Administrator's Guide.) There is no limit to the number of attachments/versions, provided that there is enough disk space.
