Zulip lets you view, sort, filter, download, and delete any files that you have uploaded.

View a file

  1. Click on the name of a file in the File column. </FlattenedSteps>
<ZulipTip> You can also view a file in the context of the [conversations](/help/recent-conversations) where it was mentioned by clicking on a message ID in the **Mentioned in** column. </ZulipTip>

Sort your files

You can sort your uploaded files by name, upload date, message ID, and size.
