Using File Drop Share links
------------------------------

Using a File Drop Share allows users to upload files to Nextcloud through an unauthenticated session.
File Drop Share links will only work when ``Allow public uploads`` is checked in the Sharing section of the Administration Settings page.

Therefore the maximum file size that can be uploaded through File Drop Shares depends entirely on settings set within your environment.
