Managing Room Documents

Liferay DXP 2026.Q3+

Every Digital Sales Room has a Documents view for the files shared on a deal, such as proposals, contracts, and case studies. Buyers and colleagues reach the view from the room’s navigation menu. Each person’s role in the room sets whether they can add files or only read them.

Note

You must activate the Digital Sales Room before opening a room’s Documents view. See Activating Digital Sales Room.

Opening a Room’s Documents View

Open the Documents view to read or download the files shared in a room.

  1. In the Rooms list, click Actions (Actions) → View on the room. See Managing Rooms.

  2. Click Documents in the room’s navigation menu.

    The view lists the files in the room’s documents folder. When that folder is empty, the view reads “There are no documents or media files in this folder.”

    Each document shows a thumbnail, who last modified it, and its workflow status.

To display selected documents on a room page, add the Document Gallery Block fragment to it. See Digital Sales Room Fragments.

Images added through other fragments are stored outside the room’s documents folder and don’t appear in the Documents view.

Document Permissions by Role

When you share a room, assign the role that matches the document access each person needs.

RoleDocument AccessRoom Pages
Room CollaboratorAdd documents to the room, and view and download existing ones.Manage the room’s pages.
Content ContributorAdd documents to the room, and view and download existing ones.View the room’s pages.
ViewerView and download documents.View the room’s pages.

The New button appears only for Room Collaborators and Content Contributors, and neither can delete a document someone else uploaded. For each role’s full description, see Room Roles.

Note

In an archived room, only instance administrators see the New button. Everyone else, including the owner of the room’s site, can view and search documents but can’t add them.
