Use Send Shed with ShareX
Take a screenshot or clip in ShareX and get a Send Shed link on your clipboard, ready to paste into Discord or anywhere else. Setup takes about a minute.
Set it up
- Create a free account or log in.
- In your dashboard, open ShareX & API and click Create API key.
- Click Download ShareX config (.sxcu) and double-click the downloaded file. ShareX asks to add it as a custom uploader: say yes.
- In ShareX, go to Destinations and set Image uploader, File uploader and Text uploader to Custom uploader.
That's it. After each capture or upload, the link is copied to your clipboard.
What you get
- Files up to 3 GB each, counted against your free 10 GB of storage.
- Links last 7 days. Every upload shows up in your dashboard, where you can delete it.
- MP4 and WebM clips play right inside Discord and X when you paste the link.
Upload from a script
The same key works with anything that can send a file over HTTP:
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_KEY" \
-F "file=@clip.mp4" \
https://sendshed.com/api/v1/upload
The response is JSON with the share link in url. Add
?folder=FOLDER_ID to the upload address to put the file straight into one of your
folders. Keep your key private. If it leaks, create a new one in your dashboard and the old
one stops working.
