QSfera Sharing Controls Production Audit
Date: 2026-06-10.
External Benchmarks
- Google Drive documents file-sharing roles, per-link/general access, download control for viewers/commenters, and folder permission inheritance on its Android sharing help page: https://support.google.com/drive/answer/2494822?co=GENIE.Platform%3DAndroid&hl=en.
- Yandex Disk documents mobile link security settings for view-only access, disabling downloads, link password, expiration date, and organization-only links on its Android sharing help page: https://yandex.com/support/yandex-360/customers/disk/app/android/en/actions/share.
Verified QSfera Coverage
| Benchmark control | QSfera evidence | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Public-link password | Android exposes shareViaLinkPasswordSwitch; Graph CreateLink stores Password; acceptance tests create and update password-protected link shares and verify old passwords fail with HTTP 401. |
Covered for Android OCS links and Graph links. |
| Public-link expiration | Android exposes shareViaLinkExpirationSwitch; Graph CreateLink reads expirationDateTime; acceptance tests create, update, and remove expiration dates. |
Covered for Android OCS links and Graph links. |
| Link access role | Android exposes read-only, read/write, and upload-only radio options; Graph link types include view, edit, upload, and createOnly; acceptance tests cover those roles for files, folders, and project-space links. |
Covered, with different Android OCS labels and Graph role names. |
| Disable downloads / secure view | Graph link types include blocksDownload; acceptance tests also verify the Secure Viewer role cannot download files. Android public-link rows display non-standard link permissions as Custom access, and the Android edit dialog treats those links as server-managed so they cannot be downgraded through the OCS dialog. |
Server/API coverage exists; Android keeps blocksDownload links server-managed until a Graph-link editor is added. |
| Organization-only access | Graph link types include internal; frontend config documents default link permission 0 as an internal/member-only link; server rejects redundant passwords on internal links; acceptance tests create and update internal links. Android public-link rows display these non-standard states as Custom access, and the Android edit dialog treats them as server-managed. |
Server/API coverage exists; Android keeps internal links server-managed until a Graph-link editor is added. |
| Role inheritance / resharing | Space sharing acceptance tests verify managers can reshare spaces, editors/viewers cannot, and project-space public-link creation requires manager rights. | Covered by server acceptance scenarios. |
Repeatable Local Check
Run from the repository root:
.\scripts\verify-sharing-controls-coverage.ps1
The script is a static coverage gate over Android UI files, Graph link type code, server link creation code, and acceptance feature files. It does not replace a full server acceptance run.
Product Decision
The Android public-link dialog exposes the OCS link controls already present in the client: password, expiration, read-only, read/write, and upload-only. Dedicated Graph internal and blocksDownload creation/editing controls remain server-managed on Android until a Graph-link editor is added. The Android list shows those links as Custom access, and the Android edit dialog disables saving for them so a user cannot accidentally replace organization-only or secure-view protection with a standard OCS read-only link.
