Freeform work file location out of iCloud

I am using Freeform on Mac and iPad Pro; sharing on iCloud is very convenient but for work organisation and archiving reasons I would need to locate the Freeform work file and be able to transfer it out of iCloud to another remote server. It would be convenient to be able to have the Freeform editable file, not just the pdf export.

Is this possible or will it be possible in the future?

Thank you

Hi Wolfranz,

If your document is in iCloud and your document is not saved on your computer, you can download it from iCloud.com and upload to your desired location. To download the file to your computer:


"On your Mac or PC

  1. On iCloud.com, click Photos and select a photo or video. Hold the command key on your Mac or control key on your PC to select multiple photos or videos. 
  2. Click and hold the download button the iCloud download icon in the upper corner of the window. If you want to download your photo or video as it was originally captured or imported, choose Unmodified Original. For JPEG or H.264 format — including edits, and even if it was originally in HEIF or HEVC format — choose Most Compatible.*
  3. Click Download.

If your photos download as a ZIP archive, learn how to uncompress the folder on your Mac or your PC. "
