# Files

> Use Files as the brand library of artifacts Aria promoted from chat.

**Files** is the brand library for deliverables Aria created or promoted across chats. The nav label is **Files**. The page title is **Promoted artifacts**.

<Frame caption="Files empty state: promote a document from chat to populate the brand library.">

## How files get here

1. Aria creates a document during a chat or skill run.
2. You open it from **Chat files** and edit in **Writing canvas** if needed.
3. You save or promote it.
4. It appears in **Files** for the active brand.

## What you can do

* Refresh the library
* Open or download an artifact
* **Export to Notion** when Notion is connected and the artifact is tied to a conversation

## Real use cases

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="Keep launch copy in one place">
    Run a content skill in Chat, edit the draft in Writing canvas, promote it, then open Files when you need the approved version later.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Hand a brief to Notion">
    Connect Notion under Connectors. Open the artifact in Files and choose **Export to Notion** for the working doc your team already uses.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Audit what Aria produced this week">
    Filter by recent chats, open each promoted file, and archive or re-run anything that drifted off-brand.
  </Accordion>
</AccordionGroup>

## Empty state

If you see "No promoted artifacts yet", create something in Chat first. Files does not invent documents on its own.
