The entry menu gains Make a Copy, which copies an item next to itself, and Copy To…, which reuses the move folder picker limited to My files; Copy To… is also in the selection menu. Both send Request::Copy, so the copy is made on Proton Drive. The move and copy reports share one request loop. Docs describe the new actions, and the changelog notes that saved public links now show their names once the SDK decrypts them.

Sharing
Share files and folders with other people, by invitation or with a public link, and use what others share with you.
Invite people
- Select a file or folder and choose Share….
- Enter one or more email addresses and choose Can view or Can edit.
- Send the invitation. People appear as members once they accept.
The admin role, which may also manage the share, is available from the command line
(--role admin).
From a terminal:
pdfs share Documents/Plans alex@example.com --role editor
pdfs members Documents/Plans # members, pending invitations and the public link
pdfs share-role changes someone's role, and pdfs unshare removes one person or stops sharing
altogether. See the command-line reference.
Create a public link
In Share…, create a public link. Anyone with the link can open the item. You can protect the
link with a password and let it expire on a date. From a terminal, use pdfs public-link create
and pdfs public-link remove.
See what you share
Shared by me lists everything you share. Filter it by links, by people, or by expired links.
Copy a link that is still valid, or stop several shares at once. pdfs shared prints the same
list.
Shared with you
Shared with me lists what other people share with you, who shared it, and what you may do with
it. The same items are in the Shared with me folder inside ~/ProtonDrive. Items where you are
a viewer are read-only.
- Invitations wait in a banner at the top of the page until you accept or reject them. From a
terminal:
pdfs invitations list, thenaccept IDorreject ID. - Saved public links have their own view, listed by the name of what they point at.
pdfs bookmarksmanages them. - Leave… a share you no longer need, or run
