Common Questions

Can I replace my PDF later? Yes! On Pro and Team plans, you can replace the PDF file without changing any existing links. Learn more →

How do I know if someone viewed my content? Check the Analytics page or the lead magnet's detail page. You'll see every view with timestamp, email (if provided), and engagement data.

Can I share without requiring an email? Yes, the email field is optional when creating access links. However, without an email, you won't know exactly who viewed your content.
