How Can I Permanently Share Files or Folders with Other Users?

You can use OBS Browser+ to share files or folders with other users through URLs. These URLs are valid for only a certain period. Once they expire, files or folders will not be accessed.

  • To share a file permanently, configure this file to be accessible from anonymous users, so anonymous users can access the file through the URL you shared.
  • To share a folder permanently, configure a bucket policy that makes the objects prefixed with a certain folder readable for the public, so anonymous users can access all objects under that folder.

Configuring the Object ACL

  1. Log in to OBS Browser+.
  2. Select the object you want to configure the ACL for and choose More > Object ACL above the object list.
  3. Configure the ACL permissions as needed and click OK.
