How do I share a file?

Right-click the file in Files and choose Share. You can add specific people, share a link, or both

• Add people: type their email under Add people by email, pick whether they can view, comment or edit, and click Add. Tick Notify them by email to send them a link
• Anyone with the link: switch it on and copy the link

What people can do with the link depends on the file:

• Word and Excel files open in Docs or Spreadsheets after signing in, and you choose whether people can view, comment or edit
• All other files can be previewed and downloaded without an account

The link works until you switch it off. Sharing is done by the owner of the file

Shared pages are never listed by search engines, and every shared page has a Report button so anyone can flag content that breaks our terms
