Accessing shared links

When you click on a shared link, your browser opens to the User Portal and presents you with several options for working with the shared file or folder. You can download files and folders or, if you're logged into the Portal, add them to your HCP Anywhere account.

Links can be shared either:

Internally — To access a file or folder that was shared internally, you need to enter your HCP Anywhere username and password.

Publicly — There are no login credentials needed to access a file or folder that was shared publicly. By clicking on the link that was shared with you, you are able to access the file or folder. However, you still need to be logged into HCP Anywhere to save the file or folder into your account.

If a link is secured by an access code, you need to enter the code to view the file or folder. A link can have an access code even if it was shared internally. If you don't have the access code, contact the person who shared the file.

Note: When accessing a link to a folder, you cannot view the contents of any mobilized data shares that the folder may contain.

To access a shared link:

1.Click on the link.

One of these happens:

oIf the link was shared publicly, the File shared by or Folder shared by page appears.

oIf the link was shared internally and you aren't logged into the User Portal, the login page appears. Then log in to the User Portal.

Once you're logged in, the File shared by or Folder shared by page appears.

2.If required, enter the access code for the link.  Then, click on the OK button.
