Feature deep dive

How large file support improves the upload workflow

Operational features turn uploads from loose attachments into a managed workflow. The goal is to help teams see what arrived, what is waiting for checkout, what is linked to an order, and what still needs production attention.

Support large files for production workflows matters because collect heavy artwork, PDFs, archives, and production assets without breaking the customer flow. For merchants selling custom products, this can directly affect conversion, support volume, and how quickly production can start after checkout.

This capability fits the Pro plan level in the current SnapUpload positioning, with the exact limits and controls shown on the pricing page. The feature is especially relevant for large PDFs, PSD and AI artwork, artwork archives, print production, where missing files, unclear requirements, or slow handoffs can quietly eat margin.

Common use cases

Where merchants get value

  • Find uploads by order, product, status, or customer context without digging through email.

  • Give fulfillment teams one reliable place to download, review, and clean up files.

Implementation notes

What to check before launch

  • Test the feature on a real Shopify product before using it on a busy product page.
  • Confirm that the theme app embed is enabled after installation or reauthorization.
  • Use Upload History, scan status, and audit activity to verify the complete customer-to-merchant handoff.
