# Documents

> Create rich-text documents, wikis, and notes organized in folders with access control, directly inside your workspace.

Documents brings a powerful rich-text editor into your workspace. Write long-form notes, wikis, standard operating procedures, meeting notes, and any other structured content. Organize documents into folders, control who can access each one, and attach documents directly to tasks for full context.

The editor supports headings, bullet lists, numbered lists, checkboxes, code blocks, callouts, collapsible sections, tables, images, links, and more. All documents auto-save as you type.

## Enable Documents

Documents is **off by default**. A workspace Owner or Admin must enable it first.

Go to **Settings → Arca Apps**, find **Documents**, and click its toggle. Once enabled, a **Documents** entry appears in the left sidebar for all workspace members.

    longer see the document.
