If you need families to send you a file as part of registration form, you can add a custom question to the registration form by selecting the **File Upload** field type. ![1-Oct-03-2025-08-02-15-9112-PM](https://help.activityhero.com/hs-fs/hubfs/1-Oct-03-2025-08-02-15-9112-PM.png?width=416&height=407&name=1-Oct-03-2025-08-02-15-9112-PM.png) ### To create a custom file upload question: 1. From your dashboard, hover over **Activities & Sessions** and click **Manage Forms & Policies**. 2. On the **Forms & Policies** page, select the **Custom Questions** tab. 3. Click **+ Add Custom Question**. 4. In the **Custom Question** field, enter instructions and a description of the requested file. 5. From the **Field Type** dropdown, select **File Upload** (accepted file types: pdf, image, doc, csv). 6. Give your custom question a name. 7. Add the question to your registration form. **Note:** If you update an existing registration form and mark the question as *required*, you’ll see a prompt asking if you’d like to notify families. If you choose yes, the next time families log in to their ActivityHero account, they will be asked to complete the new custom question on their registration form.![2-Oct-03-2025-08-02-15-8065-PM](https://help.activityhero.com/hs-fs/hubfs/2-Oct-03-2025-08-02-15-8065-PM.png?width=670&height=163&name=2-Oct-03-2025-08-02-15-8065-PM.png) ### Viewing the question and file When the families see the question they will have a **Choose Files** button that they can click on and upload files directly from their computer. ![3-Oct-03-2025-08-02-15-6974-PM](https://help.activityhero.com/hs-fs/hubfs/3-Oct-03-2025-08-02-15-6974-PM.png?width=670&height=117&name=3-Oct-03-2025-08-02-15-6974-PM.png) You will see a link to the uploaded file when you view the full registration form. ![File Upload Article](https://help.activityhero.com/hs-fs/hubfs/File%20Upload%20Article.png?width=434&height=256&name=File%20Upload%20Article.png) For more information on Customizing Registration Forms, visit:**[How do I customize my Registration Forms?](https://help.activityhero.com/hc/en-us/articles/115005631786-How-do-I-customize-my-Registration-Forms-?hsLang=en)** -
