# How do I add documents to profiles?

Kumu doesn't have any built-in support for uploading documents (e.g. PDFs or .docx files) to profiles. However, there are a few good ways to work around this.

The simplest solution is to upload your document to any online platform, (Google Drive, One Drive, Dropbox, Scribd, etc.), get a link to the document, and add that link to a Kumu profile. Readers will be able to click that link to open the document in a new tab.

If you'd rather allow readers to read the document directly inside Kumu, there are two features that can help: **widgets** and **lightbox**.

## Embed a document using widgets

If you upload your document to [Scribd](https://www.scribd.com/), you can use our Scribd widget to embed the document directly into any profile.

For more info on how to use the Scribd widget, [visit the widgets docs](/guides/widgets.md#embed-documents).

## Embed a document using lightbox

Many document hosting platforms allow you to create a share/embed link that you can use to embed the document in other platforms. In Kumu, all you need to do is retrieve that share/embed link, then add `?lightbox` or `?lightbox=full` to the end of the URL.

```scss
https://www.scribd.com/embeds/416217686/content?lightbox=full
```

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.kumu.io/frequently-asked-questions/how-do-i-add-documents-to-profiles.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
