Explanation
You can create a link for multiple items (including files and folders) in your space and share this link with others.

The recipient can access the shared items via the shared link sent by email or go to the Shared with Me page on the myQNAPcloud website. Additionally, you can now share with anyone who does not have a QNAP ID by choosing the Anyone with the link option.
