Everything you need to know about Google Drive direct links
Yes, our Google Drive direct link generator is completely free to use with no limitations. You don't need to register, pay, or provide any personal information to generate direct links.
Absolutely. Our tool works entirely in your browser - no files or links are ever uploaded to our servers. All processing happens locally on your device, ensuring complete privacy and security.
There is no file size limit for generating direct links. However, Google Drive itself has storage limits, and very large files may still trigger Google's virus scanning process during download.
Google automatically scans files for viruses when they're downloaded. For larger files or files that haven't been scanned recently, Google may display a warning page requiring manual confirmation before download. This is a Google security feature, not an issue with our tool.
Yes, you can use direct links for commercial purposes as long as you have the necessary rights to distribute the files. However, you are responsible for ensuring compliance with all applicable laws and regulations.
Direct links remain active as long as the original Google Drive file exists and maintains its sharing settings. If you delete the file or change its sharing permissions, the direct link will no longer work.
Our tool currently only generates direct links for individual files. For folders, you would need to generate direct links for each file separately. Google Drive doesn't provide a direct download option for entire folders.
