Prevent sharing of links - pixel24 - 2023-11-14

Hi@all,

Is there a way in Jellyfin to prohibit users from sharing links?

There is no authentication for links.  But you can turn off their ability to generate those links in the UI.

Dashboard > Users > Select User > uncheck allow downloads.

Great. I have tested it. It works.

you may also utilize the ip blacklist/whitelist in dashboard->networking->remote access settings if you know the intended clients ip or the bad actors ip

(i only assume this feature is functional but i use an external firewall instead of jellyfin's setting)
