This feature is already available, but it still requires improvement, including:

- The ability to change the email address of the URL owner. Considering that the Proton ecosystem is connected with SimpleLogin and many domains use mx.simplelogin, it would be advisable to consider providing an option to change the email address of the URL owner. If this option cannot be provided, it may be better to consider not displaying it at all.

- The addition of a feature that restricts downloading or only allows viewing of documents. This feature would be very beneficial to implement. I am happy to share documents and media files, but I do not want anyone to download them in order to protect copyright.

Max, could you share what you mean? I just checked and didn't see an option to REQUEST files from someone.

The closest thing, and I don't know if this was available before, seems to be creating a folder, sharing it with a link and set anyone who has the link as editor. Then, whoever you send the link to will be able to upload files.

I believe this exists now

Please add! I would like to move away from dropbox and Google, and having this feature would be very helpful in making that decision.

Please add this, secure file upload is a critical part of being able to share and distribute files

I think everybody else has already said it well. This would be a really big feature addition.

This is an imperative feature; its absence cripples the user-friendliness of the overall suite of applications.

Agreed. Until then, Dropbox will continue to get my money.

One of the difficulties of completely stopping the use of Google Drive is that many people you know still use it to share files with you. Since convincing them to switch to Proton is not realistic in all cases, I would like to have the ability to share with people a link where they can upload files to my Proton Drive.

This should, of course, have some limitations so that nobody can just upload massive files or upload so much that it fills up my space.

Such a drop box could also work well as an advertisement for Proton and maybe act as a better way to convince people to switch to Proton services, like Drive.

Yes I need that feature in my life

Really an essential feature

Essential feature for many business tasks. It will be awesome once a space limit can be set: https://protonmail.uservoice.com/forums/932839-proton-drive/suggestions/48645323-limit-space-for-shared-folders

This is a very important feature for businesses. It's a common need to request files from clients.

This is a critical feature for ProtonDrive, because the drive is only of limited usefulness, if I'm the only one who can upload files.

If my family wants to send large files to me, I still have to rely on other cloud providers or USB-sticks.

I get, that this feature is not trivial to implement while still upholding e2e-encryption standards, but there are ways around that:

1. "file-drop link protected by asymmetric encryption / hybrid encryption" - publicly shared encryption certificate and a e2e-encrpted decryption key. When uploading a file, a random password is used to encrypt the file symmetrically and the public certificate is used to store the password with the file, until the user accesses dropped files.
2. "public folder with separate e2e-encryption secret, possibly in addition to a password" - When you intend to share an empty folder plublicly, you need to set a separate strong e2e-encryption secret with the recipient of the link. Whenever you or the user access this folder, you have to enter the e2e-encryption secret. worse usability than other cloud drives, but gets the job done and still encourages people to get a real proton-drive account for better usabiltiy.

As much as I'd like all the people I interact with to be on protonmail, making this feature only available to proton users is useless. It has to be a link that I create that ANYONE can use to upload files directly to a specific folder in my proton drive.

Dropbox, pcloud, and mega (and possibly others) all have this feature.

It is now possible to share upload folder to other proton accounts.

This feature is really critical and so handy when you need to save some files from a friend in a pinch

I will like this feature as well. If I had a password protected share link that I can upload files to quickly will be great. For example, I can go to the link and type in the password and quickly upload my keepass file to backup.

Without this feature, Proton Drive is not really usable for me. Requesting files is particularly important.

Totally agree with the other comments here. As a business, we can continue to use the e-mail service as such, but it gets unmanageable without the other integrated features working properly, such as drive, calendar and so on. This means we need to get these products from other providers, such as DB for folders, which creates a lot lower threshold for moving everything to a provider with all products functioning. Even the lack of a video conference option with Proton is almost a showstopper.
