Android

Share to the installed app (recommended)

Install the Fileship dashboard as an app from Chrome, Edge or Samsung Internet, and Fileship appears in Android's share sheet. Shared files are uploaded with the same options as the upload sheet, links can be shortened or saved as notes, and text becomes a note. Your Fileship must be served over HTTPS.

See Fileship on your phone for the steps.

HTTP Shortcuts app

If you prefer an upload that runs without opening Fileship, the free HTTP Shortcuts app can send shared files to the Upload API:

  1. Create a new Regular Shortcut named Fileship.
  2. Basic Request Settings: method POST, URL https://files.example.com/api/files.
  3. Request Headers: Authorization = Bearer fs_... (your token from Settings → Integrations).
  4. Request Body / Parameters: Form data (multipart). Add a parameter of type File named file, and turn on Allow receiving files from the share sheet in the shortcut's Trigger & Execution settings.
  5. Response Handling: use a Scripting step after execution to copy the link:
    js
    copyToClipboard(JSON.parse(response.body).url);

The shortcut then shows up in the share sheet as Fileship.

Things to know

  • Uploads through HTTP Shortcuts are single requests with the whole file; your reverse proxy must accept bodies that large. The installed app uploads in chunks.
  • Keep the token private and update the shortcut after Regenerate.
