Product documents, organized and accessible

Shopify has no built-in way to attach documents to products. Compass Docs adds manuals, spec sheets, warranties and PDFs to your product pages — organized by category and searchable by product title, SKU or product number.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Do I need an app, or can Shopify do this natively?

Shopify lets you upload a file under Content > Files and paste its link into a product description. That works for a few products, but the link breaks if you replace the file, there's no document search, and nothing connects one document to many products. Compass Docs manages documents in one place and displays them with a theme app block.

Is Compass Docs a product attachments or document library app?

Yes — both names describe what it does. Compass Docs is a product attachments / document library app for Shopify: you attach PDFs like manuals, spec sheets, size guides and warranties to products, keep them organized in one library, and display them on product pages with a theme app block.

What file types can I upload?

Compass Docs supports PDFs, manuals, spec sheets, warranties, size guides, and other supported product files.

How do customers find documents?

Customers can browse documents on product pages through the document block, or use the search widget to find documents by product title, SKU, or product number.

Does it work with my theme?

Yes. Compass Docs uses Shopify's app block system, so it integrates with any Online Store 2.0 compatible theme through the theme editor. No coding required.

Is there a document limit?

Each plan supports a set number of products — from 5 on the Free plan up to 5,000 on Premium — and you can attach the documents each product needs.

How does it affect my store?

Documents load only when needed, so the widget is designed to stay lightweight on your product pages.

How do I get support?

We offer email support for all users, with priority support on paid plans. Visit our contact page or reach out through the app's help section.
