Making anonymous uploads
|
|
========================
|
|
|
|
You may create your own special upload directories so that other people can upload
|
|
files to you without having to log in to the server, and without being a Nextcloud
|
|
user.
|
|
They will not be allowed to see the contents of this directory, or to make any
|
|
changes. This is an excellent alternative to sending large attachments via email,
|
|
using an FTP server, or using commercial file-sharing services.
|
|
|
|
Setting up your own file drop
|
|
-----------------------------
|
|
|
|
Go to Files and create or choose the folder, the anonymous upload should be
|
|
made to:
|
|
|
|
.. image:: ../images/anonym_click_sharing.png
|
|
|
|
Check Share Link, Allow editing, Hide file listing:
|
|
|
|
.. image:: ../images/anonym_hide_file_listing.png
|
|
|
|
Now you can send the link to the upload folder manually or by using the
|
|
Nextcloud send function, if your administrator has enabled it.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Uploading files
|
|
---------------
|
|
|
|
Using the anonymous upload function is simple. You receive a link to the upload
|
|
folder, click the link, and then you'll see a Nextcloud page with a "**Click to
|
|
upload**" button:
|
|
|
|
.. image:: ../images/anonym_upload.png
|
|
|
|
This opens a file picker, and you select the file or directory you want to
|
|
upload. You're also able to just drop files into the window.
|
|
|
|
When your upload is completed, the filenames are listed:
|
|
|
|
.. image:: ../images/anonym_uploaded_files.png
