Sharing files and documents
Anything in Drive can be shared two ways: with named people, each with their own role, or with a link that anyone can open, including people who have no Qubix account. Both work for a single file, a document, or a whole folder.
Sharing is opened from the right-click menu of a file or folder — the Erişim entry — and from inside an open document, where it is the Paylaş button. The button in a document appears only if you may share the item; the menu entry in the file manager is always there, but opening it without the right to share ends in a refusal.
Give access to a person
-
Open the item's Erişim dialog.
-
In Kişi ekle, start typing a name or an @handle and pick the person. They are added as a Görüntüleyici.
-
Change the role in the list next to their name.
The three roles:
- Görüntüleyici — can open and read.
- Yorumcu — can also leave comments.
- Düzenleyici — can also edit.
The list is headed Erişimi olan kişiler and always starts with the Sahibi. Everyone you share with finds the item on the Benimle paylaşılan shelf. Access is taken back in the same list: pick Erişimi kaldır next to the person — they lose it immediately.
Shared items are marked in the file manager: a small people icon next to the name means Başka kişilerle paylaşıldı, so you can tell at a glance what has left your hands.
Share a folder once and everything you create or upload in it afterwards is shared with the same people — usually far less work than sharing files one by one.
An item moved into a shared folder is the exception: it keeps the access it already had and does not pick up the folder's people. Share it separately, or create it in the folder in the first place.
Hand out a link
Use a link when the person has no Qubix account — a designer, a contractor, an affiliate manager.
-
In Genel erişim, switch Kısıtlı to Bağlantıya sahip herkes.
-
In Bağlantı rolü, choose what the link allows: view, comment or edit.
-
Press Bağlantıyı kopyala and send the link.
A link to a folder lets the guest walk the whole folder and open what's inside; a link to a file or a document opens that one item. If the link grants commenting or editing, the guest also gets the comment panel and sees other people's comments appear live, without a page reload; a view-only link has no comments at all.
The two modes read as their hints say: Yalnızca erişimi olan kişiler açabilir versus İnternette bağlantıya sahip herkes açabilir. Switching back to Kısıtlı revokes the link — anyone who opens it after that gets "Bu bağlantı geçerli değil", with the hint that access was turned off. That is how you cut off a link you already sent.
What the guest sees
The link opens a page of its own, without a Qubix login. It shows the item's name and a Bağlantı ile paylaşıldı mark, and what happens next depends on what you allowed:
- A folder — a list to walk through; folders open deeper, files download.
- A file — a download card.
- A document — the document itself, editable if the link grants editing.
- Comments — a commenter or editor guest can write in the comment panel and sees other people's comments appear live. Guests are signed as Misafir, since they have no account of their own.
Three screens replace the content when something is closed: "Bu bağlantı parola ile korunuyor" asks for the password, "Bu bağlantının süresi doldu" appears once the expiry date has passed, and "Bu bağlantı geçerli değil" comes up for a revoked or wrong link. A wrong password answers Parola yanlış and lets the guest try again.
Password on a link
A link on its own is the key: whoever receives it can open the item, and it can be forwarded. A password closes that.
- With the link turned on, fill Parola belirle and press Kaydet.
- Pass the password to the person separately from the link.
Once set, the dialog shows Parola ile korunuyor with two actions: Değiştir and Kaldır.
The guest is asked for the password once and stays unlocked for a year. Changing it immediately locks out everyone who unlocked the link with the old one, so change it when someone should no longer have access. Removing it leaves the link open again.
Expiry date
Set Bağlantı geçerlilik süresi to 1 gün, 7 gün, 30 gün or Özel tarih and pick the day and time yourself. After that moment the link stops working by itself and the guest sees a plain "the link has expired" screen instead of your files. Süresiz keeps it open indefinitely.
Sending a folder to a contractor for a week? Set the expiry to 7 days — the access closes itself, with nothing to remember and nothing to revoke by hand.
Hide one subfolder from a shared folder
Inside a shared folder there may be one subfolder nobody else should see — drafts, internal numbers. Open that subfolder's sharing dialog and turn on Üst klasör paylaşımından hariç tut. It disappears completely: it is not listed and not reachable, both for people you shared with and for link guests.
Downloading, copying and printing
The gear — Ayarlar — opens the settings view. Under Kimler indirebilir, kopyalayabilir ve yazdırabilir you decide who may take the content out of Drive: separately for Düzenleyiciler and for Yorumcular ve görüntüleyiciler. With it turned off, viewers and commenters no longer see the download button. An editor restricted by the editors' switch loses it inside an open document, while in the file list the button stays visible and the refusal comes when the file is actually fetched.
The same switch applies to link guests, by the role the link grants: a link that only allows viewing will not download a file if you closed downloading for viewers. The guest is told why, in place of the download button: «Sahibi bu bağlantı için indirmeyi kapattı.»
The switch under Erişim — Düzenleyicilerin izinleri değiştirmesine ve paylaşmasına izin ver — decides whether your editors may pass access on to other people. With it off, sharing stays yours alone.
Handing an item over
Pick Sahipliği devret next to a person and confirm: they become the owner, and you stay on the item as an editor. Useful when someone leaves the team or a project moves to another person.
