File Attachment Rate = Pages with Attachments / Total Pages × 100
File Attachment Rate measures the frequency at which files, images, and other media are attached to Notion pages and database records. It indicates whether teams are capturing supporting materials alongside their written documentation.

How to calculate file attachment rate
Why file attachment rate matters for Notion users
Documentation is most useful when it includes supporting materials such as screenshots, diagrams, and reference files. A low attachment rate may indicate that important context is stored elsewhere, fragmenting information and making documentation less self-contained.
For Notion teams, file attachment analysis reveals whether the platform is being used as a comprehensive knowledge hub or just a text-based wiki. It helps identify areas where richer documentation, including visuals and supporting files, would improve understanding.
Understand and act on file attachment rate with KPI Tree
KPI Tree analyses attachment data from your Notion warehouse. Place this in your documentation completeness tree alongside content structure and block type metrics.
Assign RACI ownership to documentation leads for completeness standards. Set alerts when attachment rates drop in areas that typically require visual documentation.
