File Integration between Mail and Drive ( Attach / save )
It would be amazing to be able to do the following:
- Attach files to Proton Mail directly from Proton Drive (as link or as file)
- Save files from emails to Proton Drive
- Mass save attachments to Proto Drive

I can’t attach files directly from Google Drive. Are you serious?

+1 for this function - would be super useful to have this ability.
Seeing Lumo having direct integration with Drive convinced me that this is something definitely needed.

Please consider this integration

Need this desperately, especially since lumo, which they just released, integrates with drive.

Be able to save attachments (ie photos, videos, files etc.) from Proton Mail to Proton Drive
Be able to attach files in Proton Mail from Proton Drive
Be able to send files larger than 25MB
Make this all available for Proton Free users too!!

This seems like a non-negotiable to me. Basic integration & functionality to aid workflow & match efficiency of more mainstream solutions.

Hi, 2277 votes, feature requested 2+ years and no updates!?
Is there another way to bump this feature? Do you even monitor the site? -

It is difficult to understand that this has not been implemented. Privacy is great, basic integration between Proton apps would be appreciated.

I would really love a "one stop shop" of an integrated calendar, mail, drive, (proton docs and standard notes too!)

I can only repeat my previous comment: As we integrate Proton more and more into the organization, this becomes an increasing challenge. So I would appeal for a quick solution and now it is even more urgent.

Plus an option to allow email attachments to be saved automatically in a Proton Drive general default file inbox (folder), and a specific drive file folder per email sender.

An option to upload a file attachment from ProtonMail to a specified folder in ProtonDrive. Saves having to download & reupload it later.

Re add files to PM directly: I would appreciate the option to attach as file over option of linking.
Thanks to Jota for the great suggestion. -

Directly saving email attachments to Drive. Manually just browse&save, and with rules automatic saving: when email from x, then automatically save attachments in Drive folder y.

Hey folks,
It would be great if we could save attachments from an email to a Proton Drive folder, and attach files from Proton Drive to emails, either as a link or as a copy.
Thanks!

These and similar Mail-Drive attachement integration features should really be thought out well and I hope they're taking their time. It could create more, you don't want the attachements workflow to interfere with the good practices and conveniences and use cases of Drive, other users who don't rely on attchements so much should still have their Drive focused features taken care of.
There's technical questions how exactly this integration would behave, in many ways because it's probably about a wider set of functions in what would be a whole suite of them in this integration package. For one, there should be clear labeling and GUI indications as to what's a normal attachement and what's "duplicated" in Drive, etc. Sufficient amount of customizability of behavior whatever gets implemented. Sorting and folder structure is very important and if you have to go into Drive to fix and move things around then it's not much of a time saver and convenience. Then there's per-recipient address customizability, perhaps down to sender even, so there's a lot to consider in this conglomerate of integration features, I can't even freely recall everything.
Perhaps Proton can take note of methods of filesystem hardlinks where you have one single data section on disk and multiple equivalent references that function as a file and if either exists, the data will exist, so not just soft shortcuts/links.
It could be interesting to automatically "save" display attachements as files in a special folder in Proton Drive, and it shouldn't take up extra cloud space, and it wouldn't be just a link, in case of hardlink mode if you delete either the email with the attachement or the file in protondrive, the other one should remain, unless you either change options to not do hardlinking (just soft) or you choose to permanently delete both/all references.
It's also a question if deleting attachements is a thing, isn't that normally not possible without modifying email authenticity/originality / hashes? Normally you'd either delete the whole email message or nothing.
Only after some good use will it become more visible as to what kind of behavior is preferred, what's missing, what could be different. I wouldn't like a half-solution for the sake of speedy support.
