What is a file to link converter?

A file to link converter turns your file (PDF, image, video, or other supported type) into a shareable link so you can send it to clients or collaborators without email attachments or file downloads. In Kreatli, you upload your file, generate a secure review link, and share it—recipients open the file in their browser and can comment and approve without creating an account. Every link stays tied to your project and file version.

How do I convert a file to a link in Kreatli?

Upload your file to a Kreatli project, open the file menu (⋯) on the asset, and choose Share to create a secure review link. Copy the link or send it via the share modal (email, Slack, etc.). Recipients click the link to open the file in their browser. You can generate different links for different people or review rounds, and revoke or update access anytime.

Do recipients need to create an account to view the file link?

No. Kreatli review links are no-signup—recipients click the link and open the file in their browser. They can view the file, add comments and annotations, and submit feedback without creating an account or installing anything. That keeps the approval process fast and friction-free.

Can I have multiple links for the same file?

Yes. You can generate multiple links for the same file—for example, one per client or one per review round. Each link opens the same file (or the version you choose), and you can revoke or update access per link. Every link stays tied to the right project and version.

What happens when I upload a new version of the file?

When you upload a new version, you control who sees it. You can share the same or a new link so recipients see the updated file. Version history is kept in one place so you can compare versions and track which draft was approved.

Why use a file to link converter in Kreatli instead of WeTransfer or email?

A file to link converter in Kreatli gives you one secure link that opens in the browser—no bulky attachments, no expiring WeTransfer links. Recipients can review and comment in one place, and you get a clear record of feedback and approvals. Everything stays in your project with your video, images, PDFs, and other assets.
