Share settings

The following provides ShareFile admins with the information necessary to manage the default share link option and control who can access shared files.

To change the share settings:

1. Navigate to Account settings.
2. Select Advanced Preferences.
3. Select File Settings
4. Go to Share settings.
5. Select which users are able to share files with. Available permissions are:
   1. Anyone (public) - Anyone with the share link can access the files without entering information or signing in.
   2. Anyone (public, must enter a name and email) - Anyone with the share link can access the files after entering their name and email address.
   3. Client contacts and employee users (after signing in) - Only client contacts and employee users in your account can access the files after signing in.
   4. Employee users (after signing in) - Only employee users in your account can access the files after signing in.
   5. Email recipients (only for Outlook) - Only the recipients of the Outlook email can access the files.
6. Choose the default access option that users see when they share files. You can also set the maximum period for which a share link can provide access.
7. Save your changes.

Note:

• ShareFile administrators have granular control over how files are stored, shared, and secured.

• Disabling the four options will disable the Get a link option and will only allow to send to specific people.
