WebDAV Security and Clients

WebDAV security and clients

FileRise includes a built-in WebDAV endpoint at /webdav.php. Use HTTPS for all WebDAV access.

Security recommendations

• Enable HTTPS (TLS) before using WebDAV.
• Disable WebDAV if you do not use it.
• Use dedicated FileRise users for WebDAV access.
• Avoid sharing admin accounts.

Client setup (quick)

• macOS Finder: Connect to Server -> https://your-domain/webdav.php
• Windows: Map a network drive -> https://your-domain/webdav.php
• Linux (gio): gio mount dav://username@your-domain/webdav.php/

Limits

• WebDAV uploads can be capped with FR_WEBDAV_MAX_UPLOAD_BYTES.
• Encrypted-at-rest folders disable WebDAV by design.
