Sharing to Anyone

You can use these methods to share content to anyone:

With visitor and public links, it is possible to share links to M-Files objects for people without access to M-Files. With visitor links, you can specify the people who can open the link. With public links, anyone with the link can open it.

Sharing a copy by email

To share a copy of an object by email, right-click an object in the listing area and select Share > Send Copy by E-mail. As a result, an email message with a copy of the selected file attached is created.

Sharing a PDF by email

To convert and share a file in PDF format by email, right-click an object in the listing area and select Share > Send as PDF by E-mail. As a result, M-Files converts the selected file to PDF format and creates an email message with the PDF file attached. The file in M-Files stays in its original format.

For information on how to convert objects to PDF format without sending them, see Making PDFs of Existing Objects.
