Linking to a Document using Recorded Links
If a document is saved in Radar Healthcare, it can be linked to a form for a user to download. This is often used in Workforce Compliance Requirements for example, to ensure that users have downloaded and read a policy.
To find the link for a document, from within the document management section of Radar Healthcare, select the three dot menu icon to the right hand side of the document you wish to link to the form and select Copy Url
Navigate back to the Form in the Form editor
Select the Recorded link element, as per the instructions above.
In the Link destination field on the left hand panel, paste the link that you have just copied:
Enter the Label and Link text as required
You can now see your link on the preview screen on the right hand side:
When a user clicks on this link, the document will download directly to their computer/device.
Please note - when linking to a document, you must ensure that the permissions set on the document allow the users completing the form to access the document. If the permissions on a document restrict access to only certain roles any other users trying to follow the link will be unable to do so.
