Are 1-to-n Send - Receive possible?
Hi,
Is it possible for multiple device to receives the same file (i.e with same 6 digit key)?
If not what will happen if there is 2 devices trying to receive the same file (i.e with same key). How is this race condition handled.
Thanks,
Sharan

Hi Sharan,
Basically, it only works for 1-to1 transfer. The 6-digit key will expire immediately once the transfer begins.
However, you can choose to 'upload' the files for 24hrs when using Send Anywhere app. In this case, the 6 digit key will be changed to alphabet-numeric mixed key, and multiple recipients can download the files with the same key for limited time.
Thanks!

Is the alphanumeric key (24 hr) capability available on the Web API?

On the receiving side, yes. But on the sending side, no.
You can input a valid alphanumeric key for receiving files with our API.
However, it's currently unavailable to send files with 24 hr upload option with an alphanumeric key.
