Updated October 19, 2026Web

When someone opens your share link, they see a page with the content you shared. They do not need a Drime account.

#Before the content opens

If you protected the link, visitors first see:

a password screen, when the link has a password;
a request for their email address or an agreement to accept, when you turned on these visitor access options.

Action	What happens
Preview	A file opens in the browser. A folder shows its content, 50 items per page.

Save to Drime	Copies the item into their own Drime account, after they sign in or create an account.
Copy link	Copies the link to share it further.
