| + | * Learn how to share the ''Test'' folder using a //public link// | ||
| + | * Use the public link in another browser (or in a new //incognito window// of the same browser) to find out how people with the link will see the content of the folder you have shared | ||
| + | * Try to share only the uploaded file (instead of the full content of the ''Test'' folder) | ||
| + | |||
