# Add Files Using File URLs When Sending

BoldSign allows you to add files using file URLs for e-signature using the `FileUrls` property. The supported file formats that can be used in `FileUrls` are .pdf, .png, .jpg, .docx, .xlsx and .pptx. The .pdf is the preferred format. You can refer to the following link for [supported file formats](https://support.boldsign.com/kb/article/154/supported-file-formats-and-sizes#:~:text=BoldSign%20supports%20PDF%2C%20JPG%2C%20PNG,should%20not%20be%20over%2025MB). Make sure that the header content-type in the file URL should be in proper format like application/pdf, application/msword.

Here is an example demonstrating how to add a file using a file URL when sending a document for eSignature using the BoldSign API.
