Shareable Channels
Users on our Pro and Enterprise plans have the option to share Channels and Folders.
At a glance
You can share larger amounts of music, including your entire catalog when you share a Channel!
Sharing Channels and Folders
- In the left sidebar of your DISCO, under Channels, hover over the desired Channel or Folder and open the menu (⋮).
- Select Share.
- In the Share channel menu, from the Link tab, copy the link and share it with your recipient(s).
Disabling Channel and Folder share links
- In the left sidebar of your DISCO, under Channels, hover over the desired Channel or Folder and open the menu (⋮).
- Select Share.
- In the Share channel menu, from the Link tab, click the X to permanently disable the share link. This means that anyone with it will no longer be able to access it.
- If you're sure, click the Confirm button.
- After confirming, you'll have an option to Generate new link.
Downloading shared Channels and Folders
When your recipients open the link to the shared Channel or Folder, there will be a Download channel or Download folder button in the top-right corner (only if the whole Channel or Folder is under 5GB).
Folders within Channels will have a Download option in the menu (…) to the right:
Playlists and Tracks will also have a Download option on the menu (…) to the right, just like a regular Playlist or Track share page:
Playlists will also have a Save to DISCO option in this menu (Tracks will not).
When you download the Channel, all of its contents will be included (Folders, Sub-folders, Tracks, and Playlists). When you download a Folder within a Channel, everything within that specific Folder will be included (Sub-folders, Tracks, and Playlists). When you download a Sub-folder, everything within that specific Sub-folder will be downloaded (Tracks and Playlists):
Browsing and searching through shared Channels
When you click into a Folder or Sub-folder, you will see the breadcrumb trail appear above the Folder or Sub-folder name:
You can also search within Channels, Folders, or Sub-folders from the Share pages. The search is limited to what is on that specific page, so if you are looking to search within a Folder or Sub-folder, you will need to click into it first.
Viewing Playlists in shared Channels
Playlists display and work the same as they do via Playlist share links –– Themes and other settings, like Alias Metadata and download Formats, will apply. The main difference is they'll have the breadcrumb trail leading back to their parent folder(s) or channel:
