What Are Folder Access Keys

Folder Access Keys are useful for companies that use automated programs to upload data, like files or reports to a FilesAnywhere account. These folders do not require a username or password because they are assigned a special key. This allows the automated program to reach out to this destination folder with the key and upload the files without requiring manual username and password entry. For example, employees may upload weekly reports directly into a FilesAnywhere user account (specific folder) without needing or ever being prompted for a username and password.
