Published Links

Published links are great for inviting external collaborators that need temporary access to a folder or file.

You can create a link from a preset permission level, or build a custom link with individual toggles.

Preset permission levels

Published links support these preset levels:

• Viewing: View the asset
• Downloading: View and download the asset
• Commenting: Downloading plus commenting
• Editing: Commenting plus uploading, renaming, and deletion
• Full Access: Editing plus sharing with others

Custom link permissions

Custom links let you enable specific capabilities:

• Commenting
• Downloading
• Viewing Metadata
• Editing Metadata
• Uploading

To create a published link:

• Right click on any asset or folder and click Share (or click on the Share button on the top right of the screen)
• Choose your published link preset, or make your own using the Create custom link button.
• Choose the permissions you would like to assign
• Optionally assign a password, and expiration date.
• Click the Create link button on the top right

Now you can copy this link to your clipboard and share it via the button on the right hand side.

The permissions for this link can always be modified later. Changes apply to anyone using that link.

You can also keep track of all of a drive’s shared links via the Shared Links section of the drive on the left hand side.

Published links support analytics, so you can review link activity after sharing.
