Public shares

Users with the shareRole permission can generate public share links for a song, album, or playlist. BeetstreamNext creates a public landing page with a secure download endpoint, accessible without needing the recipient to have an account or Subsonic client.

Active shares can be revoked at any time from the admin panel’s Shares tab.

Public hostname

If BeetstreamNext is reachable from the internet under a different hostname than what it binds to locally (e.g. behind a reverse proxy), set external_hostname so that share links use the correct public URL instead of the internal bind address:

beetstreamnext:
  external_hostname: music.example.com

See external_hostname in the configuration reference.
