Do I have any way to create links to entire folders?

Help and Support
1

I'm on idrive e2. Their support says I have no way to share links to folders from the web interface. IOW if I want to share a folder full of files, I have to get links for every individual file.

Certainly I could write some horrifically ugly script on my end to scrape the web interface and gather all the links. This is suboptimal. Do I have any more efficient way to do this with rclone cli, or naaaaa?

Thanks so much

using iDrive you can share all buckets:

if you require something more sophisticated and granular have a look at 3rd parties solutions, e.g.:

This nirvashare thing looks super slick, thanks so much.

I'll get started with it shortly.

Oh, it's on-prem/self hosted? That's no good, I was hoping it's on cloud

iDrive S3 does not support sharing folders. You have to use some 3rd party solution or create your own.

NirvaShare is only an example - but one recommended by iDrive.

rclone is not going to help you with solving your problem I am afraid.

I mean, tbh this strikes me as a bit silly. If you can make a list of files in a folder, before or after transfer, you can make a set of links.

I guess I will have to make a script after all, it seems like the least annoying option

ETA NVM seems nirva can run on wsl. Still annoying but manageable.
