Public CDN links

Easily share assets on HIVO with colleagues or customers by providing public CDN URLs.

A Public CDN Link is a direct link to an asset (such as an image, video, file) hosted on a content delivery network (CDN). This means you can share this asset with anyone on the internet without having to upload it somewhere else. It's like an address to your asset, making it quick and easy for others to access.

👉 With the Public CDN URLs feature, you can easily share assets on HIVO with colleagues or customers by providing a link.

Set permissions to create Public CDN URLs

Requirements: You need to have the "Can Make asset public" and "Can make all assets public" permissions. See more about "Edit User Rights" here.
