# Files

## How do I attach Files to my Billable Participant Note?

To begin attaching a file, simply click the `Upload Files` button at the bottom of the screen to bring up the dialogue box. Once selected, you can attach files to your Participant Note. This includes the ability to take a photo, attach a PDF file, or upload any other allowed file type. 

On a mobile device, this will also feature the option to take a photo while uploading the file. 

## What happens after I create a Billable Participant Note?

As this is the last stage, once you have attached all your required Files simply click the `Save & Close` button to complete your Billable Participant Note. 

After you create a Billable Participant Note, **Maica** will have created both an [Appointment](/maica-knowledge-base/getting-started/maica-key-concepts/appointment.md) and a Participant Note. The Note will be stored against the Participant and can be viewed in the [Participants Profile](/maica-knowledge-base/appointments/appointment-actions/open-appointment-profile.md), whilst the Appointment will be automatically assigned a `Complete` status and used within Maica for Billing. 

{% hint style="info" %}
The same logic applies if your Participant Note is not Billable, however, there will be no Invoice Line Item.

## 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://knowledge.maica.com.au/maica-knowledge-base/participants/billable-participant-notes/files.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.
