topic Paid-Project: Public URL for external file distribution in Alfresco Archive https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/paid-project-public-url-for-external-file-distribution/m-p/231100#M184230 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>I have posted the following "job" on elance.com (</SPAN><A href="http://www.elance.com/job?jobid=20644601&amp;rid=WD01" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">http://www.elance.com/job?jobid=20644601&amp;rid=WD01</A><SPAN>) and I'm looking for paid developers to develop this feature. Once developed I will release the result back to the community.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>We would like to create a plugin for Alfresco 3.2 and above that allows a user with the right permissions to create a public-download URL.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>The functionality will be similar to a "yousendit.com" or other service, it will create URLs the way tinyurl or bit.ly does. It will allow our employees to send large files to people without emailing the file, send a URL instead where people can securely download from our Alfresco. It will do this without giving them access to anything else on Alfresco and without showing them the Alfresco login or other parts of the system.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>So for example:</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>User puts a file in a specific directory for public distribution</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>User presses a button or runs an action on the file</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>User can choose an expiration date and a multiple number of downloads</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>User is given an encrypted URL (like </SPAN><A href="http://docs.example.com/alfresco/157e74d7ca" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">http://docs.example.com/alfresco/157e74d7ca</A><SPAN>)</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>The User can now share this URL with an *external* person/company</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>The external person can use the URL to download the file *without* logging in to Alfresco or having an account</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>The system only allows the use of the URL up to the expiry date and download count</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>The file is deleted from the directory once the URL expires</SPAN><BR /><BR /><BR /><SPAN>The plugin must be secure so that it is impossible to download a file outside the specific directory, impossible to guess a URL, impossible to use it after expiry.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>=====</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>If you are interested in the outcome of this project, post a follow up or follow this thread.
