Sharing

Sharing is how a guest walks away with their content. MixUp uploads the finished photo/video to a cloud service, turns it into a link, and offers that link to the guest as a QR code, SMS/WhatsApp, email, or over local Wi-Fi.

Most sharing methods deliver a link, and links come from the cloud uploader. Set that up before anything else, or QR/SMS/email will have nothing to hand out. See Cloud uploader setup.

The uploader currently supports these cloud services:

  • Dropbox
  • Yandex.Disk

(SMS and WhatsApp are delivered via Twilio, and Telegram via a bot — those are set up under Sharing methods, on top of the uploader.)

  2. Email

Once the uploader works, open Sharing Options (the paper-airplane icon) and enable the methods you want:

  • QR Code — the guest scans it to open their content.
  • SMS / WhatsApp — sent through Twilio.
  • Email — sent over your SMTP account.
  • Telegram — via a bot.
  • Local Wi-Fi sharing — the booth serves the content over its own Wi-Fi (no internet needed).

Beyond per-guest sharing, MixUp can serve the booth gallery to tablets over your own network, so guests browse, share, and print away from the booth. See Local Web Gallery.

Behind the scenes each item moves through: In queue → Upload started → Uploaded → Published → Done. If a step fails you’ll see a specific reason (wrong token, wrong path, no free space, API rate limit, and so on) — see the troubleshooting notes on the Sharing methods page.
