# Documents

The Documents section is the place for any documents that are important for your community: rules, budgets, bids, reserve studies, etc. Admins are able to add new documents and edit existing ones.

## Controlling access

You can control which types of community members can read each document. By default a new document will be available to homeowners. But documents can be made available to renters as well. Admins can always access every document.

{% hint style="info" %}
Documents can only be added, edited, and removed by admins. Controlling access to a document only controls who can *read* that document.
{% endhint %}

## Document groups

Documents can be arranged in groups to keep things organized. You might want to have a group to hold all of your budgets, perhaps making only the most recent budget available to homeowners while making older budgets only available to admins.

# Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation

If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter:

```
GET https://guide.ourlittlecommunity.org/features/documents.md?ask=<question>
```

The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
