File Management

Sharing Files and Folders

Share your files securely with anyone - whether they have a Felicloud account or not.

Sharing Options

🔗 Share Link

Create a link anyone can use to access your file. No account required.

👤 Share with Users

Share directly with other Felicloud users by email or username.

Creating a Share Link

1. Select the File or Folder

Find the file or folder you want to share in the web interface, desktop app, or mobile app.

2. Open Sharing Panel

Click the share icon (person with +) or right-click and select "Share".

3. Create Link

Click "Share link" or the link icon. A shareable link is automatically created and copied.

4. Configure Options (Optional)

Click the ⋯ next to the link to configure:

  • Password: Require a password to access
  • Expiration: Set when the link expires
  • Permissions: View only, allow editing, or file drop
  • Hide download: Prevent downloading (view only)
TipFor sensitive files, always set a password and expiration date. Share the password through a different channel than the link.

Sharing with Felicloud Users

1. Open Sharing Panel

Click the share icon on the file or folder you want to share.

2. Enter Username or Email

Type the Felicloud username or email address of the person you want to share with.

  • Can edit: Can modify files and add new ones
  • Can share: Can re-share with others

4. Send Share

Click "Share" to send. The recipient will see the shared item in their "Shared with you" section.

File Drop (Upload Only)

File drop lets people upload files to your folder without seeing its contents - perfect for collecting submissions.

1. Create a Folder

Create a folder where you want to receive files (e.g., "Submissions").

2. Create Share Link

Open the sharing panel and create a share link.

3. Enable File Drop

Click ⋯ next to the link, then set permissions to "File drop (upload only)".

Good to knowWith file drop, uploaders can only add files - they cannot see, download, or modify any existing content.

Managing Shares

View Your Shares

Click "Shares" in the left sidebar to see:

  • Shared by you: Files and folders you've shared with others
  • Shared with you: Items others have shared with you

Modify or Remove Shares

  • Click the share icon on any shared item to see all shares
  • Click ⋯ next to a share to modify permissions
  • Click the trash icon to remove a share
WarningRemoving a share immediately revokes access. The recipient will no longer be able to access the file.

  1. Navigate to the file or folder in the app
  2. Tap the ⋯ menu button
  3. Select "Share"
  4. Choose "Share link" or enter a username

TipOn mobile, you can share directly to WhatsApp, Telegram, email, or any other app that accepts links.

Collaboration Tips

For Team Projects

Share a folder with edit permissions so everyone can add and modify files. Consider creating subfolders for different team members or topics.

For Client Deliverables

Use view-only share links with passwords and expiration dates. This ensures secure, time-limited access.

For Collecting Files

Use file drop folders to receive files from multiple people without revealing the folder contents to each other.
