Drive
Share a folder
POST/api/v1/drive/folders/:id/share
Who can use this: Any signed-in accountAs Markdown
The link opens the whole folder, subfolders included, to browse and download, but nothing outside it. As with a file, a public link opens for anyone who has it, and naming a person in shared_with makes it open only for them, signed in, lists it for them and emails them the link.
Parameters
| Name | Where | What it is |
|---|---|---|
| id required | path | The folder's id.e.g. 7 |
| shared_with | query | The address of the person to share with. Leave it out for a public link. |
| expires_days | query | The link stops working after this many days (1 to 9999). Leave it out for a link that lasts until you revoke it.e.g. 7 |
Good to know
- What you add to the folder later is shared too, and anything inside it you move to Trash drops out of the share.
- You can't share with yourself (400). A folder that isn't yours, or is in Trash, answers 404.
