Sharing & Permissions

CubyCrate allows users to share files and folders from My Storage with registered colleagues or external recipients.

When you open the Share (Bagikan) dialog on an item in My Storage, two distinct sharing modes are available:

  1. User Shares (Internal): Share with specific registered users on the same CubyCrate server.
  2. Public Links (External): Generate an external URL accessible to anyone, optionally secured with a password and expiration date.

You can grant granular permissions to other users registered on your instance:

Role Permissions
Viewer (Viewer) Can view in-browser previews and download the file. Cannot rename, move, edit, or delete the item.
Editor (Editor) Can download, rename, overwrite, move, and upload files into shared folders.
  1. Open the item menu

    Right-click the file or click the three-dot action menu (⋮) and select Bagikan (Share).

  2. Select recipient and role

    Search for the user’s username or email address and choose either Viewer or Editor.

  3. Confirm access

    Click Tambah (Add). The recipient will see the shared item under their Shared with Me (Dibagikan dengan Saya) drive view.

Public links allow external parties to access and download files without creating an account on your server.

  • Password Protection: Optional password required before external visitors can preview or download the file. Passwords are hash-verified on the server.
  • Expiration Date: Set a date and time after which the link automatically becomes inactive.
  • Download Limits: Optional limit on the number of times a file can be downloaded before the link expires.
  1. Enable public link

    In the Share dialog, switch to the Tautan Publik (Public Link) tab and toggle the link active.

  2. Configure optional protection

    Enter an access password and choose an expiration date if required.

  3. Copy and distribute link

    Copy the generated public URL (e.g., https://drive.example.com/share/abc123xyz) and send it to your recipient.

You retain full ownership and control over shared items:

  • Review active shares: The Share dialog lists every user and public link currently granted access.
  • Change permissions: Switch an existing user between Editor and Viewer instantly.
  • Revoke access: Click Hapus Akses (Remove Access) or toggle off the public link. Access is revoked immediately; ongoing downloads are cut off.
