Is there was way to free up space on your MacBook Pro using iCloud?

Is there a way to free up space on your MacBook Pro using iCloud? I'm aware of the Maximize storage feature for photos and video...but what about for documents?


Thanks.

You may be able to reduce the storage that iCloud Drive (including Desktop & Documents option) takes on your Mac by turning on Apple menu > System Preferences > Apple ID > iCloud (in sidebar) > Optimize Mac Storage.
