# Your files

The **Drive** app holds your company's documents: quotes, invoices, scans, photos. You put files in, you file them, you hand one to somebody who has no account here through a link, and you open the whole thing as a disk in your file explorer.

## Your drive and the account's

|             | Your drive                            | A shared drive               |
| ----------- | ------------------------------------- | ---------------------------- |
| Who owns it | you                                   | the account                  |
| Who sees it | you                                   | its members                  |
| How many    | one, opened the first time you use it | as many as the account opens |

Everyone on the team has their drive, whether they read a mailbox or not. Shared drives are created and filled from **Manage shared drives**, in the rail.

On a shared drive, each member holds a role: **read**, or **read and write**. The **Who is on this drive** screen lists the members and records every change, visible to the people it concerns.

## Adding, filing, throwing away

**Add a file** puts something in, **New folder** files it. A file is renamed, moved and downloaded from its actions menu. A file weighs up to **64 MB**.

**Move to trash** sets aside: what sits there is deleted for good after **thirty days**, and takes room in your plan until then. **Restore** brings it back, **Delete permanently** settles it at once and frees the room.

## Sharing a file through a link

**Share** builds an address you send to whoever you like, including people with no account here:

1. choose the **expiry**: 1, 7, 30 or 90 days;
2. add a **password** if the document deserves one;
3. **copy the link right away**: it is shown once.

A file's list of links shows how many times each has been used and how long it lasts. **Remove** switches one off before its expiry. Past its term, the link tells its visitor to ask for a new one.

## Opening your files as a disk

Your drives mount in Windows Explorer, the Mac Finder and the iPhone Files app, with nothing to install:

| Field         | Value                                             |
| ------------- | ------------------------------------------------- |
| **Address**   | `https://suite.simafri.com/dav/files/`            |
| **User name** | your sign-in address                              |
| **Password**  | an application password, created from **Devices** |

* **Windows**: Explorer, This PC, **Map network drive**, then the address above.
* **macOS**: Finder, Go, **Connect to Server**, then the address above.
* **iPhone and iPad**: Files app, menu, **Connect to Server**.

The top level lists the drives you have access to. The drive properties show the account's free space, the very one the suite displays.

## What counts towards your plan

Files, trash included, take room in the account's plan, along with mail, calendars and address books. One gauge answers everywhere. See [Storage and billing](/en/suite/stockage-et-facturation.md).
