Create an Upload Link

In Socialive Portal, you can create a link that individuals can access and then upload content from their devices. Upload links do not require the person to be a user in the Socialive Platform.

Upload links may be useful when you are not certain in advance who will be contributing content, such as at a public event or in other scenarios where you want to cast a wide net to get content into Socialive. These links are an alternative to capturing content in the Recording Booth, Green Room, mobile app, and other methods of recording or uploading content to Socialive. 

Only a Socialive Admin user may create Upload Links. The platform assigns ownership of all uploaded content from a link to the Socialive user account that created the Upload Link. 

Upload links are available as an additional add-on feature; if you are interested in upload links, contact your Socialive contact to discuss adding this feature to your Socialive account. 


  1. In Socialive, click Create, then select Upload link. 

  1. Select the Space to which the recording will be uploaded. You may create multiple invite links in a Socialive Space. 

  1. Enter the invitation's title. This is an internal title; it will not be shown to the people using the link and PIN.

  1. Add a four-digit PIN and the link expiration date and time. The PIN and link must be shared with those uploading. Since you will be potentially sharing the link and PIN widely, it’s a best practice to limit the expiration date to the narrowest time window you think you will need to collect content. 

  1. Click Create Link.


  1. The link will then be available to copy and paste from the link area. This link and the PIN should be shared with those uploading. 



  1. Go to Space details under the Upload Links tab to view a list of open link invitations where you can

    • Preview the link URL

    • View the PIN 

    • Enable or disable the link - disabled links will no longer allow uploads.

    • Delete the link - Deleted links will no longer allow uploads. Content uploaded via the link will remain in the selected space.

Upload links are available as an additional add-on feature; if you are interested in upload links, contact your Socialive contact to discuss adding this feature to your Socialive account.
