Visual Guide – Using ‘Add a Leaf’ to share a file

The “Add a Leaf” button on the top toolbar allows you to publish content in your Google Drive or Device to SharingTree. Start by clicking the ‘Add a Leaf‘ button and then follow the steps below. Publishing should only take a few minutes and be sure you have the right to share the content.

One important choice is the type of COPYRIGHT to apply to your document. See our copyright guide to help you decide. Copyrighted content can always be converted to Collaborative or Creative Commons later. You can also revise most information later by going to Leaves -> Published. The exception is you can not change Creative Commons or Collaborative content you publish to copyrighted later.

The last page you will when sharing content using ‘Add a Leaf‘ is below.

This page lets you click the link to view your published leaf or share your leaf on social media. You can also change any information or add a custom image using Leaves -> Published or selecting Manage leaf.
