Files from shared folder
Creating a folder share

The window for creating a share can be opened in two ways:

  1. Via the administration menu: In the folder listing, you can create a new share using the Publicly Shared Folders button.
  2. Via the folder view: In the file listing, you can create a new share using the QR code button (to the left of the favorite folder button).

Create a Share

Once the window for creating a share is open, you can configure the following settings:

Setting Description
Folder to share The folder whose files should be shared.
Allowed access The access rights that should apply to the shared folder.
PIN A PIN that can be added to the share. This must then be entered when using the share. It is recommended to set a strong PIN.
Valid until When a date is set, the share will be automatically deactivated after this date. Alternatively, a share can be activated for an indefinite period.

Click the Create share button to create the share and display the QR code and URL. These can then be distributed to the desired recipients.

The QR code can also be saved directly as an image for printing, and the URL can be copied to the clipboard and, for example, inserted into an email.

For more information on viewing and editing a share, see View or edit share.

Share Overview

All created shares can be found in the folder listing under Overview of all shares.
