How to create a shared folder

Create Shared Folder

Overview

The new Create Shared Folder action lets primary FenixShare users spin up a brand-new encrypted workspace without leaving the browser. From a single modal you can name the folder, stage initial files, create the share, and land directly in the link with everything queued for upload.

Who Can Use It

• Available to signed-in primary users only; guests will not see the button.

• Requires permission to create shares within your tenant.

• Works for folders backed by the default FenixPyre connector; additional connectors retain their existing creation paths.

Step-by-Step

1. Open the sidebar and select Create Shared Folder.

   
2. Name the folder – enter a descriptive title; the Create Folder button stays disabled until text is provided.

3. Select files (optional) – click anywhere in the upload card to choose multiple files. They appear in a checklist with icons, sizes, and remove controls.

   
4. Create the folder – click Create Folder. You will be redirected to the new share link once it’s ready.

5. Let uploads finish – on the share link page, queued files upload automatically. The upload widget shows progress so you can continue working.

Tips & Troubleshooting

• Change your mind? Use Cancel to reset the modal; the folder name and file queue clear when it closes.

• Need more files? After the redirect, drag-and-drop or use the regular Upload action inside the share link.
