Drime
Dropshare 6.17 or newer
To set up a connection to Drime, you need to create a Drime Connection in the Connections preferences after you've created a Personal Access Token in your Drime account settings.
Create Personal Access Token
- Sign in to Drime and open Settings > Developers > API access tokens, or go directly to the developer settings.
- Click Create token.
- Give the token access to Files, Folders and Sharing with Write permission, or simply select the All scope.
- Copy the token. Drime shows the token only once, so paste it into Dropshare right away or keep it somewhere safe.
Tokens do not expire. They stay valid until you delete them in Drime.
Set Up Connection
Go to the Dropshare preferences, open the Connections tab, and choose to create a new Drime Connection.
| Preference | Description |
|---|---|
| Access Token | The personal access token you created in the previous step. The Create a token in Drime link below the field opens the Drime developer settings. |
| Workspace | The Drime workspace to upload to. Personal is your own drive. Any workspaces you are a member of are listed as well once you've entered your token. Dropshare for Android always uploads to Personal. |
| Folder Path | Folder where Dropshare should upload files to, e.g.: - Dropshare for a folder named "Dropshare" (default)- Screenshots/2026 for nested folders-Leave empty to upload to the root folder Folders that don't exist yet are created automatically. |
| Link Type | The kind of link Dropshare copies after an upload, see below. |
Link types
| Link type | Description |
|---|---|
| Short link (dri.me) | A short link like https://dri.me/AbC123, which opens the Drime share page with a preview and a download button. This is the default. |
| Share page (app.drime.cloud) | The same share page, using the full https://app.drime.cloud/drive/shares/... address. |
| Direct download | A link that downloads the file directly, without the share page. Browsers always download the file and don't show a preview, so this link type is not suited for embedding images. |
Shared links allow downloads and are not password protected.
Click Test Connection to make sure everything has been set up correctly, and you're done! The test uploads a small image named test-connection.png into your upload folder and copies its link. The test file stays in your Drime account, so you can delete it in Drime afterwards.
Large files
Files of any size can be uploaded. Dropshare uploads large files to Drime in parts automatically.
Deleting uploads
When you delete an upload in Dropshare, from the history, the recent uploads or through automatic deletion, the file is deleted permanently from Drime. It is not moved to the Drime trash, and its link stops working immediately.
INFO
Please note that custom landing pages do not work with Drime.
