What is /:f:/r in shared URLs?
Hello, When I click on "get a link" on a document, the URL looks like this: https://orgname.sharepoint.com/:f:/r/sites/[Path to document] What is the purpose of "/:f:/r" in that URL? Most of...
It's just part of how they are treating links to documents in SharePoint nowadays through their new link system. If you share it with others using invite or anyone link it'll change to :x:/s: instead of r to signify it's a sharing link. But it's something with the link system when access files putting it there.
Just a reply on what the letter stands for:
/:f - designates a folder
:/r - indicates a read-only link
:/e - edit link
Fred Y what does :/t represent.
- If I had to guess probably the new "Team" sharing option coming to the new Teams sharing links.
Has anybody found a comprehensive list or dictionary of the :?: file types?
I'm specifically after what an :o: refers in decoding a potential phishing url - kinda tricky when not a direct Sharepoint user tho...
Fred Y You seem to know stuff - what does :x: mean in my SharePoint url it comes right after the company name in the url like this: .sharepoint.com/:x:/r/sites/
- “:f” means Folder sharing
- “:w” means Word document sharing
- “:x” means Excel document sharing
- “:p” means PowerPoint document sharing
- “:b” means PDF document sharing
