If you store a lot of larger files (e.g. images and videos) in a Base, you may eventually reach the storage limits of your subscription , and above 100 MB it will no longer be possible to export .
One solution to comply with the limits in this case is to outsource your files to a cloud storage like Seafile, which you can then connect to SeaTable. In the following article you will learn how to integrate a Seafile library into a Base.
To connect a Seafile library to SeaTable
- Open the Seafile web interface and log in with your Seafile account.
- Click the drop-down icon to open the advanced options of a Seafile library and click API Token.
- Name the token, assign a read and write permission or a read only permission and create the token via Submit.
- Copy the API token to the cache.
- After that, open the SeaTable web interface and go to the Base where you want to include the library.
- Click the three dots in the Base header to open the advanced Base options and select the third-party integration option.
- In the Seafile area, click Add Seafile Library.
- Enter the name of the library, the URL of your Seafile server, and the library API token you copied earlier.
- Finally click on Check. After the success message has appeared, confirm the integration with Submit.
Access files in Seafile
Nach erfolgreicher Einbindung in die Base erscheint die Seafile Bibliothek als Ordner im Dateimanagement Ihrer Base.
Through this integration, you can use the files stored in Seafile directly in SeaTable.
Integration possibilities
Basically, you can connect both self-hosted and hosted Seafile servers to SeaTable. Feel free to contact our sales team if you want to self-host a Seafile server. For SeaTable Dedicated customers we offer Seafile co-hosting.
