If you have an account with us you now have the ability to upload PDF documents to a
permit for a field inspector to view. You can go to your contractor dashboard that will allow
you to upload documents for inspectors in the field without having them posted on site and
the field inspector can then review when an inspection request is made, this includes
engineering letters; soil verification or stucco certification letters; life safety certifications such
as alarm and sprinkler or any other additional information that is needed during the
construction process. The format is PDF due to size limitations. The following steps walk you
