How to send files to multiple recipients at once
The same files can reach many people through one download link, through a transfer addressed to several email addresses, or through a shared folder when the group needs ongoing access.
Three ways to do it
One link for everyone
Upload once, share the same link with everyone. Simplest option, and downloads are unlimited.
Multiple email addresses
Enter several recipients when creating the transfer, and each of them receives the notification directly.
Shared folder
Best when the same group needs access to material over time rather than to a single delivery.
Sending to a group
- Upload the files once.
- Choose whether to distribute a link or to enter recipient addresses.
- Set an expiration that suits the slowest recipient, not the fastest.
- Add a password if the group is large and the material is sensitive.
- Send, and let each recipient download when it suits them.
Choosing between a link and named recipients
| One shared link | Named recipients | |
|---|---|---|
| Effort | Lowest | Slightly higher |
| Control over circulation | Low, the link can be forwarded | Higher |
| Suitable for confidential material | Only with a password | Better |
| Suitable for large groups | Yes | Yes |
Practical notes
- downloads are unlimited, so the number of recipients does not require re-uploading
- a longer expiration reduces follow-up requests from people who were slow
- for recurring distribution to the same group, a shared folder saves repeated sending
FAQ
Can several people download the same transfer?
Yes. Downloads are unlimited, so one link serves as many recipients as needed.
Is it better to send one link or to enter each address?
A single link is simpler, while named recipients give more control over who receives the transfer, which matters for sensitive material.
How do I distribute files to the same group regularly?
Use a shared folder, so the group keeps access and new material appears without a new transfer.
Summary
One upload can serve many recipients through a shared link, through named email recipients, or through a shared folder for ongoing access. Downloads are unlimited, so group size is not a constraint, but expiration and passwords should match how widely the link will circulate.
