Deliver files right to your clients or partners, without worrying about file sizes or full email boxes ever again!
Sharing files step by step
1. Select the files you want to share. The asset viewer also recognizes ⇧(shift)-click to select a range of assets and ⌘(command)-click (Mac) / crtl-click (Windows) to select multiple individual assets. You can also select assets in any pattern you wish with the rubber-band select.
2. Click the share button to reveal the share options panel

3. Enter the recipients email address, a subject and an optional message. On the left you see the first 9 items that you are about to share, in the up right corner the number in the badge says how many assets you are about to share.
There are three different methods you can use to share your assets:
- Send link: This means the recipient will get an email in which he finds a link and a password to download the shared assets.
- Send attachments: The recipient will get an email with the shared files attached. Warning: Because of certain inbox size limits some recipients may not be able to receive emails containing large files.
- Use my email client: Your default email client will open a new email message, containing the magic phrase and the download link. This comes in handy if you want to use the address book of your local email client, plus you can easily share the files with more than one recipient.
Choose one of these three methods and then click the “Send” button. Done.

The recipient will get an email with the shared assets attached or a link (depending on the method you’ve chosen) and the magic phrase. The link will lead the recipient to a download page like this:
After entering the magic phrase, downloading will start immediately. Note that there’s only one file to download, as Fluxiom will automatically provide a ZIP archive of the shared files. This shortens download times and is more convenient for the recipient.
