Sharing Files in Sync

File sharing allows you to provide public or private access to files stored in FileCloud and saved in your Sync folders.

While files can easily be shared by emailing them to someone, sharing files using Sync allows you to:

• Keep track of who you have shared a file with
• Add comments about the file
• Monitor file versions
• Control changes people make to the file or folder by setting a combination of permissions.
• Have an allocated amount of personal file storage in a common file system

You can share a file in many different ways. 

	Requires a FileCloud Account	Set Permissions	Set Options	Share with Everyone	Share with a Specific User
Public	Anyone with the link can access	View Download	Share Name  Expiration  Restrict Downloads Notifications  Require Password
Private	Invite those without an account to create one	View Download Share	Share Name  Expiration Notifications	Add Groups to share with multiple users at once	With a FileCloud account

To create a share or manage it, select the Share Link option from the right-click menu.

 If the file is already being shared, click the Share Link option to edit or manage the share.

The Share link window opens. By default, the share is private but no recipients are included. You can add recipients, or make the share public (allow anyone with the link to view the share), and send the link to the person or people you want to share it with.
