# Nextcloud: Creating Shares (Freigaben erstellen)

This source provides operational instructions for managing files and folder shares within the university's Nextcloud instance.

## Key Content

### Sharing Methods
The "Share" symbol is used to distribute files or folders via two primary methods:
- **Link Sharing**: Creating/generating a URL for access.
- **Internal Sharing**: Granting access to other university members via their accounts.

### Permission Management
Different rights can be assigned to shares, such as editing, creating, and deleting. This permission control applies to both sharing methods.

### Organization of Received Shares
Users who receive shared folders can rename them or move them within their own directory structure to maintain organization. This can be done without affecting the original owner's structure.

## Support
Technical issues and support are handled by the [[universitatsrechenzentrum-urz]] via the following channels:
- The [[groupware]] ticket system.
- The URZ hotline (ext. 1420).
