Accessing fylr through LinkrUI

Integrating fylr into various third party services such as Google Worksuite, Figma and Adobe

BETA: fylr integration is currently in active development from Santa Cruz Software

Required

Fylr requires linkrui capabilities in license. Not part of fylr by default. Contact support to obtain a new license including linkrui. The underlying fylr instance needs no additional configuration for the LinkrUI extension to work.

• Authentication: A login to a appropriately licensed fylr instance

• Rights Management: Permissions to see and download at least one object type with a file field

Setup (for Google Workspace)

1. Install the "LinkrUI for Google Workspace" Add-On in your tool of choice

2. Open the LinkrUI Extension

3. Provide the fylr server URL, authenticate with your login

Current authentication bug: If the authenticate page opening shows errors, copy the generated authentication link in the extension, update the URLs client_id parameter from santa-cruz to linkrui , then paste the URL and authenticate.
