All of the files on your Public Drive are given a URL that can be searched and shared as any other web address.
To locate the full URL address highlight a file within your public folder.
In the details panel, select the square with a diagonal arrow - this is the public preview button. It will load any browser compatible data. This includes photos, music, movies, and PDFs.
URLs on the Permaweb
When you click the public preview button, a new tab in your browser will open. You're viewing your data on the permaweb. The first string of numbers is a sandbox that arweave.net uses, the string of characters after arweave.net is the data item's transaction ID.
Once you have this unique URL you can share it with others, embed it on a website or bookmark it in your browser as a record of your public permaweb files.
Warning: Not all file types can be previewed in the browser. If a file type cannot be previewed, it will automatically download the file to your computer.
