### Insert file descriptions in an email

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="One by one" %}
![](/files/-LsHpy_k2XHO3_5lTN19)

* **Display**: The Symbol will be displayed just before the title, and the image will be the first one (if you have more than one) 
* **Display pictures**: You can resize or remove pictures included in the description
* **Clickable title**: A link will be added on the title, leading to this file's detail page on your site
* **Truncate the text**: This will cut the description part of the file you insert

![](/files/-MQSBH4AYSHZ5ZCwex4S)

* **Custom view**: You can edit the view of the articles that you insert
  {% endtab %}

{% tab title="By category" %}
If you select "By category", you will be able to insert multiple files at a time.

* **Content to insert**: You can insert files of one or more categories, or all files if you don't select anything

![](/files/-LsHr3pmQZcffX7Oz35d)

* **First options**: see "One by one" options
* **Order by**: By default, files are sorted by creation date
* **Only featured element**: If set to "Yes", the non featured files won't be inserted in your email
* **Columns**: You can insert for example 2 files per row in your email
* **Column horizontal padding**: Allows you to adjust the horizontal padding between 2 columns
* **Column vertical padding**: Allows you to adjust the vertical padding between 2 columns

The two next options are only useful when used in a campaign sent automatically (in the "Send settings" step)

* **Only newly created**: If turned On, it will only insert files that have been created since the last time a campaign has been generated.
* **Min. number of elements**: If the number of files you specify isn't reached, a campaign won't be generated by your "automatic" campaign
