Open Access feature can be configured under the Options tab in a channel. Don't forget to hit Save!
Open Access enables you to share content with anyone without them needing to sign up for a TitanFile account. When you upload content to an Open Access Channel, your contacts will receive an email from TitanFile with a link to the Channel that looks like this:
If they click on the link they will be taken to the Channel page.
Here they can see the conversation and download the files you have provided for them without logging into an account, but they cannot reply. To reply they must log in to a free account.
How to Password Protect Open Access Channels
Tip: The Open Access feature is not the most secure way to send files, since it does not ask your contacts for any authentication. To ensure that your content is always secure, you can add a Channel Password.
Alternatively, Subscription Administrators may also enforce the use of channel passwords for all open access Channels. With this option enabled, all channel owners will be required to create a channel password when enabling the open access option.
Note: Enforce open access channel passwords is currently in testing and will be available early November 2023.
To enforce channel passwords for open access channels, visit the Channel Options Tab.
From there, scroll down and enable the "Require mandatory password for newly created open access channels" option.
Subscription users will then be required to create a channel password when creating an open access channel.
Anyone accessing the open access channel will need to enter a channel password to unlock the channel contents.
