from the team:
Hi everyone,
We are starting the beta rollout of a new feature on Proton Drive: Private Access Sharing. This feature builds on how sharing currently works on Drive by allowing you to share directly using email addresses. For now, it will be available for the Visionary users who have beta access turned on over the next few days.
Now share directly via email
Private Access Sharing allows you to share files and folders directly with specific individuals via their email addresses, providing you with enhanced control and security over your shared content. With this feature, you can:
Proton Drive will continue to support public link sharing alongside private access sharing.
How to Use Private Access Sharing:
During the beta phase, your recipient also needs to be on the beta version to access the items shared with them. They can turn this on via the quick settings by clicking on the gear icon in the top right corner.
Files shared with you via Private Access Sharing will appear in the new Shared with me section.
We invite our Visionary users to try it out and share your thoughts. Your feedback will help us ensure that this feature meets your expectations.
Stay secure,
