View activity for a shared file

After you’ve shared a file, you can view who accessed it by doing the following:

1. Sign in icon-info to workplace web app_ icon-info.
2. In the sidebar, click icon-shared Shared files.
3. Find your file (if the list is long, try the file search at the top right).
4. Click the chain icon [ Linked ].
5. In the pop-up, click [ View activity ].
6. This will take you to the activity section and filter it by the file name.
   Depending on the type of shared file, activity could include the recipients’:
   • Phone number
   • Date/time viewed
   • Access location
   • Whether the file was previewed/downloaded

Pro-tip: You can also visit the icon-big-profile Account menu, select icon-profile Profile and settings, click icon-activity Activity in the sidebar, and search the file name to see sharing activity.
