FileShare allows the Appalachian State University community to securely share files with colleagues both inside and outside of the University. It is a temporary and secure storage system for securely sharing files and data.
FileShare Instructions
- To use FileShare, open a web browser and navigate to fileshare.appstate.edu
- Log in with your App State username and password.
- You will need to provide DUO verification in one of the following ways:
- Users will receive an auto-push to their primary/default device if push notifications are enabled.
- Users can add a comma to the end of their password followed by a passcode (from token or emergency bypass code)
- Users can add a comma to the end of their password followed by the word 'phone' to receive a DUO phone call to a registered phone number.
FileShare gives users the ability to send secure messages, receive files, and directly link to secure files.
- Send up to 1000 MB files to internal and external customers.
- Receive up to 1000 MB sized files from anywhere.
- Request files with a simple link for the receiver to use when responding to the request.
- Send secure email messages with file download tracking.
Note: Use a comma to separate multiple email addresses in the to, cc, and bcc lines. Toggling the private message option will prevent the message body from being sent in the email.
