Schoolyi

Outgoing share links and public token downloads

Sharing & links

Share files with controlled outgoing links and public token URLs — for parent downloads, vendor handoffs, and external reviewers without opening full folder access. Not every share needs a full account. Schoolyi supports outgoing share links and time-limited public tokens so schools distribute forms, policies, and event packs externally while keeping the drive permission model intact.
