File Request
In my business I often need to request files larger than can be sent through email, and my clients do not necessarily use programs like google drive, dropbox, etc, so it can add some friction to receiving files.
I would like for Proton Drive to have a File Request feature similar to the one that Dropbox has.

This is quite literally the only reason I still use Dropbox instead of Proton Drive. One of my main uses of cloud storage is to receive files that are too large for email. (Or, many small files.) You can't do that without a file request feature.

Agreed - my use case seems identical to Eric Chavez. I currently rely on the Tresorit file request feature to to enable a number of service providers to upload documents into my centralized file store. I would strongly prefer to use Proton Drive if this feature were available.
Even better if all of my service providers and friends used the Proton suite - and we are all working on that!

Agreed! I currently use Tresorit which is end to end encrypted and they have a file request feature: https://support.tresorit.com/hc/en-us/articles/360012710939-Create-a-file-request
This would be one of the things that would make me drop Tresorit and switch to ProtonDrive

Agreed we have an academy where students, teachers, and parents need to share documents. I need the ability to request files. Right now I have to use Dropbox and then move them to Proton Drive.
