Connecting to kDrive via WebDAV
This guide provides instructions for connecting to kDrive via WebDAV if, for example, you want to:
- use the WebDAV application of your choice instead of the official kDrive application
- use kDrive as a synchronization base for a tool that allows this via WebDAV (e.g., Joplin)
- access kDrive from the file manager of your operating system
This access option is only available for paid versions of kDrive.
kDrive ID
To find out your kDrive identifier (IDkDrive):
- Log in to the Infomaniak Manager (manager.infomaniak.com) from a web browser like Brave or Edge
- Click on the icon in the top right corner of the interface (or navigate through the left side menu, for example)
- Choose kDrive (universe Collaborative Tools)
- Click on the name of the relevant object in the displayed table
- The kDrive tree structure will appear in the left side menu
- The address displayed at the top in your browser contains a number: kdrive.infomaniak.com/app/drive/123456
This number (in the example 123456) is your kDrive identifier (IDkDrive).
So, you'll need to write https://IDkDrive.connect.kdrive.infomaniak.com every time it's necessary (https://123456.connect.kdrive.infomaniak.com
, for example, as WebDAV address).
