Yes. Lodrive supports shareable links for individual files and folders. External collaborators, clients, or stakeholders can access shared files through a link without needing a Lodos account - similar to Google Drive's share link functionality.
Lodrive is the file layer of the entire Lodos workspace. Files shared in Social Hive channels are automatically stored in Lodrive. Documents attached to Task Management cards are filed in Lodrive. Meeting notes and exports from other modules land in Lodrive with one click. Your files are always where the work is - not in a separate app.
No. Lodrive is a standalone cloud storage system within Lodos - no Google account, Google Workspace license, or third-party login required. It works with your existing Lodos account and is included in your workspace subscription.
Lodrive supports all file types for upload, download, and organization. File preview is available for common image and document formats. Files can be organized into nested folder hierarchies, filtered by type, and searched by name - making it easy to manage large libraries of project assets, deliverables, and reference files.
