If it is necessary to send data with a size larger than 16-18 MB from a specific sender to the recipient, e-mail ceases to be the optimal solution.
...
In this situation, you can use the „Drive” service. The service allows
...
a Gdańsk Tech employee to put files on the server and then make them available to other employees of the University or external recipients (without a login and password to the
...
Moja PG system).

The service is not intended for permanent storage and sharing of files, e.g. for archiving purposes or for permanent sharing of the same file resources. The purpose of the service is to allow only temporary saving of files in order to further make them available to specific recipients for the purpose of data exchange, bypassing technical limitations of e-mail. After reaching the assumed goal, the files should be deleted from the space of the „Drive” service. |
To provide a larger attachment for specific people, do the following:
On the webmail.pg.edu.pl website, log in with the username and password similar to
the My GUT the Gdańsk Tech system. Using the top navigation bar, go to the Drive tab, marked with a cloud icon.
On the gray background menu on the left, find the My Files section and click on it. In the My Files section, the default folders are: Documents, Music, Pictures, Videos. These folders are provided by the software and can not be deleted or renamed. You can use them by placing files or subfolders with files there. You can also create your own folder with subfolders as needed. Add a folder, a subfolder and save the file using the New drop-down in the navigation bar.
You can put multiple files at once on the server – from a single folder. However, the service does not support the placement of files with subfolders, inclusive. If you need to create your own structure of folders and subfolders on the server, you must create this structure yourself – you can not copy it from the local computer's disk. The service also supports placing files using the drag-and-drop method: mark the files you are interested in (e.g. in the Windows File Explorer window) and, while holding the left mouse button, drag them to the folder area in the „Drive” service.
3. If the intended files and folders are placed on the server in the „Drive” service, you can proceed to making them available. You can share both a single file and a file folder. When performing the share activity, you can select one file or one folder. In the next step, you can reshare for the next file or folder. Then, mouse over the resource that interests you by clicking on it once with the left mouse button.
If a folder is indicated, then in the gray menu (in the left part of the view), an option icon (in the form of three horizontal lines) will be displayed near the folder – click on this icon and select Permissions / Invite people .
If a file is indicated, the Share option will be available in the white navigation bar – click on it and select the option Invite people. This icon is also displayed for folders.
...
7. You can find a list of all important shared resources available in the gray menu (in the left part of the view) in the My Shares section. Therefore, there is no need to remember or record which resources and which recipients have been made available.
...
Sharing data with public links
haring resources on the server in the „Drive” service is also possible through the so-called public links. A public link is the URL of a specific resource that you can provide, for example, in an e-mail or temporarily publish on any website. Anyone who has a public link will be able to access the resource on the server. You can specify the duration of such access and password protection. The indication of the duration of the access is possible only in the form made available by the software – it is not possible to specify day from the calendar. If necessary, you can revoke the validity of the public link at any time and thus cancel the sharing of the resource. To assign a public link to a resource, do the following:
On the webmail.pg.edu.pl website, log in with the username and password similar to the
...
Gdańsk Tech system. Using the top navigation bar, go to the Drive tab, marked with a cloud icon.
2. Using the gray background menu (shown on the left side of the view), find the folder where the resource to share is located. You can share the entire folder or a single file.
...
7. Click Close. If the recipients have been identified to send automatic e-mails with a public reference address, currently these e-mails will be sent (along with the individual content and the explicitly provided password – if these options were used).
...
Placing resources from the „Drive” service as attachments in manually created e-mails
The resource placed in the „Drive” service can also be included in a manually created e-mail (in the Mail tab in the top navigation bar). In this case, the maximum total size of the attached resources is 100 MB (in one e-mail). Regardless, you must ensure that the recipient has the technical capability to receive such a large e-mail.
Note: the possibility of including in this way the resource from the „Drive” service allows to omit the limit of
...
central Gdańsk Tech mail, which limits the acceptable size of the e-mail (content + attachments) to 20 MB. We explain that manually created e-mail with an attachment attached from a local computer disk (i.e. an attachment manually added by the user, without using the resource in the „Drive” service) is still subject to a maximum e-mail size (content + attachments) equal to 20 MB.
