Files & Storage

What the Files.com connector can do

Files.com handles secure cloud file storage and transfer, covering folders, permissions, and shared links for a team. Once it is connected to a type.com Space, Claude can list folders, revoke access, or clean up expired shares and old API keys for the team without anyone opening the Files.com console directly.

One connection, many Spaces

Connect Files.com once, then decide which Spaces can use it in threads, skills, automations, and coding work.

What teams do with Files.com in type.com

Representative actions

  • Delete API Key

    Revokes a Files.com API key once you know its identifier, cutting off that integration's access.

  • Delete Permission

    Removes a previously granted permission so a user or group can no longer reach a given path.

  • Delete Share

    Takes down a public share link, even if it was already removed, so it is safe to retry.

  • Get S3 Key for Upload

    Generates a temporary upload key so a local file can be staged in Files.com before importing or sharing.

  • List Folders

    Returns folders with filtering and pagination, useful for browsing structure or finding a folder by name.

FAQ

Questions people ask before connecting Files.com

Can Claude manage Files.com folders and permissions?

Yes. With a Files.com connection shared into a Space, Claude can list folders, remove permissions, delete share links or API keys, and stage uploads, all from a type.com thread your team can see.

How does type.com authenticate to Files.com?

Files.com uses an API key, added once by an admin when the connection is created. Admins then choose which Spaces can use it, so credentials stay out of prompts and threads.

Can Files.com cleanup run on a schedule?

Yes. Tasks like reviewing stale share links every month can be saved as a type.com automation that runs on that cadence and reports back to a channel.

Is this the same as a Files.com MCP server?

Not exactly. type.com uses connectors and connections to give selected Spaces access to approved app tools and data. Some connectors use hosted MCP, while others use OAuth, API keys, service accounts, or custom APIs.
