Some time ago, I tried Pydio and run into a problem. It is described in this link:

[https://forum.pydio.com/t/link-in-the-share-column/728](https://forum.pydio.com/t/link-in-the-share-column/728)

After some time, I’ve managed to have a new server with Pydio 8 installed (as it was suggested in the old discussion), only to face the same problem. In other words, when I copy the share URL of a picture I’ve uploaded, I get something in the form of:

[https://storage.xxxxxxx.com/pydio/public/6c99f7](https://storage.xxxxxxx.com/pydio/public/6c99f7)

Which can not be used in a forums post, to show the uploaded picture in it. I need something like:

[https://storage.xxxxxxx.com/pydio/public/mypicture.jpg](https://storage.xxxxxxx.com/pydio/public/mypicture.jpg)

where mypicture.jpg is the name of the picture I have uploaded. How can I achieve that???

If so, please provide concrete instructions, so I can give them to my sysadmin to implement.

Many thanks!

P.S.: Yes, I have checked this thread [this thread](https://forum.pydio.com/t/sharing-direct-link-to-image-in-pydio-8/935/7), which asks the same question more or less, but it contains no specific instructions that I can understand. Help will be greatly appreciated.

Come on, no one can provide an answer to this question? No one is using Pydio as an image sharing server?!?!?!

Hello,  
Unfortunately, a shared object (an image in this case) can’t be accessible directly throw url ☹

OK, thanks! I guess that’s it with Pydio. I need to find something else!
