File Shares

Shares Listing Page

M-Connect File Shares can be used with both anonymous and authenticated users. For authenticated users, a File Share listing page is available to help view and manage shares. While administrators can view all Shares, non-administrators can only see File Shares they are assigned to or are a manager of. Expired File Shares are hidden by default but can be displayed with the Show Expired Shares toggle.
