Guests

Build Status

Create guest users which can only see files shared with them

Usage

  1. Create a guest user by typing their email address in to the sharing dialog.
  2. [Optionally] Set a display name for the guest user.
  3. [Optionally] Set a language for the invitation email (otherwise the server's default language will be used).
  4. The guest will receive an email invitation with a link to create an account. They only have access to files which are shared with them.

Restrictions on guest users

Apps

Administrators can set a whitelist of apps that guest users have access to.

By default the following are allowed:

  • activity
  • files_external
  • files_sharing
  • files_texteditor
  • files_trashbin
  • files_versions
  • firstrunwizard
  • gallery
  • notifications

Hide other users

By default, guests will not be able to list other users in the system, if a guest user gets added to a group he will be able to list users within that group (and, for example, share files with those users).
