Sharing multiple files
To share multiple files, you can drag to select or individually select the files you wish to share and click the Access & Share icon from the action bar at the bottom of the page.

To share an entire Collection of files, hover over the Collection thumbnail and click the share icon - OR drag to select or manually select a few Collections and a few files at once!
Sharing multiple Collections

The Access & Share modal
From the Access & Share modal, click Set a link to create a share link.
With a share link created, you can:
Customize the URL by clicking into the link field and inputting your text.
Add a Comment to be displayed on the top of your share link page.
Create a static or updatable share link. (When sharing Collections only)
A static share link is a snapshot of the Collection or files you have selected and will only give those with this static link, access to those specific files and/or Collections.
An updatable share link allows you to include all new files or Collections added to the shared Collection in the future.
Copy your share link by clicking the copy icon in the share link field and click Done to close the modal.
Advanced share link settings
To access advanced share link features, Set a link and then click the Link settings cog wheel that appears.
From the link settings area, you can enable the following features:
Template: Available options match your workspace views - grid, masonry, and tile, with an additional slider view. Your selection will be the initial view on the share link, but recipients can change their personal view.
Expiration date: Setting an expiration date will deactivate the share link and make all shared files, inaccessible on that date.
Allow downloads: With this toggled on, all files will be downloadable. To create a view-only share link, toggle allow downloads off.
Watermark images: If a watermark has been added to your workspace, you can display that watermark on all images in this share link.
Require workspace login: If you need to keep this share link private to only those who have a login to your workspace, you can require them to be logged in to view the share. Anyone without a login, will not be able to view the files.
Require password: Set a customized password that must be entered to access the files in the share link.
Allow comments: Allow anyone to leave comments on files from your share link. Logged-in users will be recognized by their name, while external users will be required to fill in a name field to comment.
Allow favorites: Allow anyone to favorite files from your share link. Logged-in users will be recognized while external users will be recorded as anonymous users.
Enable statuses: If you have added file statuses to your workspace, you can allow share link recipients to add or change those statuses from the share link.
Require email to download: To track downloads by external users, they must add an email address before downloading files. All emails are then available under the details section of your shares page and are exportable to csv.
File sizes: If you have multiple file sizes created in your workspace, you can restrict what sizes are available on this share link.
Once you create a share link, you can change or edit it at any time. Find out more about editing share links here.
