7.1. How to connect to web storage

Connect to Dropbox, Google Drive, Box, OneDrive, Office 365, Yandex.Disk, Windows SMB and any other storage which supports the WebDAV/FTP/SFTP protocol connection in PDF Expert.

Note: if you can not find the storage of your choice among available options, please check its manual. If the storage supports WebDAV/FTP/ SFTP/SMB protocols, you can configure the connection and access it in PDF Expert 6 using the supported protocol.

Some cloud storage services and network drives provide the possibility to connect via WebDAV protocol, here are a few examples: 

  • Mail.Ru — you can connect to the cloud storage with WebDAV. This type of connection is available if you have a paid subscription. To connect to the cloud storage, go to Documents Settings > Network > Add account > WebDAV > add https://webdav.cloud.mail.ru in the URL field and fill in other details.
  • ownCloud — you can connect to the cloud storage with WebDAV; for more information, visit the ownCloud Guide.
  • MagentaCLOUD — you can connect to the cloud storage with WebDAV; for more information, visit the MagentaCLOUD Guide.
