Are duplicates of a Zoom doc stored in chat, and zmail?

[J_Hill]

I'm trying to create a use case for reduced file storage needs with zoom docs. When I share a zoom docs file on zmail or in chat - does it create another copy or is it accessing the same file?

Hi @J_Hill , 

Answer here is no, we will not create a copy when share docs using zmail or chat, you are just sending the url of the original docs. When accessing it, always point to the original file.
