Scenario

A professor manages a film studies course

1
The professor creates a workspace for the semester She creates "Film Studies 301, Spring 2026" and invites 45 students by email. Each student gets Uploader access.
2
Course materials are shared in a read-only folder Lecture recordings (10+ GB each), reading PDFs, and reference clips are uploaded to a "Materials" folder. Students can download but not modify or delete anything.
3
Students submit assignments via file requests The professor sends a file request link for each assignment. Students upload their video projects (often 5-50 GB) directly into a submissions folder. Each student can only see their own upload.
4
The semester ends, the workspace is archived Grades are submitted. The professor archives the workspace. Files remain accessible for 90 days, then storage is reclaimed. Next semester, she creates a fresh workspace.
Scenario

A research lab shares datasets across universities

1
The PI creates a workspace pinned to a specific region The research involves patient data that must stay in the EU. The workspace is locked to eu-central-2 (Frankfurt). Data never leaves Germany.
2
Collaborators from 3 universities are invited PhD students in Berlin get Editor access. Collaborators in Amsterdam and Vienna get Viewer access. Everyone connects to the Frankfurt region.
3
Multi-terabyte datasets are uploaded and shared MRI scans, genomic sequences, and simulation outputs are uploaded in chunks with resumable transfers. No file size limits on paid plans.
4
Audit logs satisfy ethics board requirements Every access is logged with timestamp, user, IP, and region. When the ethics board asks for a data access report, the PI exports it in one click.

Scenario

A lecturer shares course materials with smart access controls

1
The lecturer creates a public share link for the "Lecture Notes" folder Instead of emailing files to 200 students individually, she generates a single share link for the entire folder. New files added to the folder are automatically available through the same link.
2
She restricts access by university email domain The link is configured to only allow access from @university.edu email addresses. Anyone with a different email domain sees an "Access Denied" page.
3
She adds an IP range restriction for exam materials For the "Exams" subfolder, she enables IP range filtering so it is only accessible from the campus network (10.0.0.0/8). Students can only download exam papers while on campus WiFi.
4
Sensitive research files are locked to specific emails For a shared research dataset, she creates a link that only 5 specific email addresses can access. Each person must verify their email before downloading. Every access is logged.
Email Domain

Only allow access from specific email domains like @university.edu or @company.com.

Specific Emails

Whitelist individual email addresses. Only those people can access the link after email verification.

Country Restriction

Limit access to specific countries. Block downloads from outside your institution's country.

IP Range

Restrict to campus network IPs or VPN ranges. Perfect for exam materials and licensed content.
