Enabling Anonymous Uploads with Files Drop (Enterprise Only)
|
|
============================================================
|
|
|
|
The Files Drop application, introduced in ownCloud 8.0.3 Enterprise
|
|
Subscription, allows anyone to upload files with the click of a button to the
|
|
directory of your choosing, without needing a login, and they cannot see or
|
|
change the contents of the directory. It is the perfect replacement for
|
|
attaching large files to email, maintaining an FTP server, and commercial
|
|
file-sharing services.
|
|
|
|
When files are uploaded to your Files Drop directory, you can manage them just
|
|
like any other ownCloud share: you may share them, restrict access, edit, and
|
|
delete them.
|
|
|
|
Setting Up the Files Drop App
|
|
-----------------------------
|
|
|
|
Setting up Files Drop is a matter of a few clicks. First go to your Apps page
|
|
and enable it.
|
|
|
|
.. image:: images/files-drop-1.png
|
|
:alt: Enabled Files Drop app.
|
|
|
|
Now your users will see a configuration section on their Personal pages.
|
|
|
|
.. image:: images/files-drop-2.png
|
|
:alt: Files Drop button.
|
|
|
|
Click the **Choose** button to open a dialog to select your upload directory.
|
|
You may wish to first create a special upload directory (on your Files page),
|
|
which in the following example is name **upload**.
|
|
|
|

|
|
:alt: Folder chooser.
|
|
|
|
On your Personal page you should now see a URL for your upload directory. Share
|
|
this URL with anyone you want to allow uploads to your File Drop folder. Note
|
|
that the maximum upload size in this example is 512MB. (The default
|
|
ownCloud upload file size limit is 512MB. See
|
|
:doc:`../configuration_files/big_file_upload_configuration` to learn how to
|
|
customize this.)

|
Using the Files Drop App
|
|
------------------------
|
|
|
|
Uploading files via the Files Drop app is simple. Open your Web browser to the
|
|
share URL created by ownCloud:
|
|
|
|
.. figure:: images/files-drop-5.png
|
|
:alt: Click to Upload File button.
|
|
|
|
Click the **Click to upload file** button. This opens a file picker, and you
|
|
select the file or directory you want to upload.
|
|
|
|
.. figure:: images/files-drop-6.png
|
|
:alt: Upload file picker.
|
|
|
|
When your upload is completed, you'll see a confirmation message with the
|
|
filenames.
