FAQs

1. What Google Drive file settings does Xynn.xyz change to publish the file (or folder) to paying customers?
   Xynn.xyz helps creators like you to monetize your Google Drive™ files / folders by sharing a view-only link to paying customers when you publish a file / folder on Xynn.xyz. You can earn each time a customer purchases access to the file / folder. You choose which file / folder is shared and up for purchase.  You can also choose if a customer is allowed to download or make a copy of the file / folder. You can also unpublish an item which will make it no longer accessible to others. 
   To enable this functionality, Xynn.xyz needs to make changes to permissions of files / folders that you choose to publish (share with paying customers). Xynn.xyz  changes the chosen file / folder permission to ‘Anyone with the Link can view’ and set ‘Viewers and commenters can see the option to download, print, and copy’ on or off as per your sharing preferences. The file is made view-only on a page which is accessible to paying customers. 
   To ensure the right files are accessible to the right paying customers, we collect file metadata such as file ID and file type. We do not access or store the actual content of any of your files. 
   To start publishing files, become a creator and manage your publications.

2. How many paying customers can I get?
   Currently, there is no restriction on the number of paying customers that can buy your files / folders daily.
   
3. Can I add paying customers as restricted viewers or commenters directly to my Google Drive™ file or folder?
   This feature is coming soon!
   However Google Drive™ places a ‘sharing quota’ for number of restricted file or folder shares per day. The quota is generally 50 shares per day for free accounts. When we roll out this feature shortly as another option, we will have to work with this quota restriction by Google™ to ensure all your customers can have access to files or folders. This means you can only have 50 customers per day who have restricted view or comment access directly to your file / folder. We recommend you choose this option in the future to share highly premium content or content that allows people to directly collaborate on the file / folder.
