LinkShield: Chrome plugin → right-click any file → "Set Cap" → enter 250 → click "Lock". Link returns gone once counter hits limit+1; counter clears only if you physically toggle off. SheetLimiter: Make a single-row Google Sheet with columns: URL, Cap (250), Tally (formula =ROWS(IMPORTRANGE("leads","A:A"))). Publish sheet as JSON and feed it to a lightweight PHP script on your server. When Current_Count ≥ Quota, the script updates the .htaccess rule and blocks the route. Zapier + Filter: Trigger: Fresh entry in your opt-in Google Sheet → Action: Only continue if (only proceed if row number = the cap) → Action: Drive API → Move file to a private folder that has "Prevent viewers from downloading" enabled and zero links. Link dies on the spot because the share token changes.

Reuse half-used quotas: the extension keeps a exportable log of every email that clicked. Import the list into your ESP and tag them "fulfilled" so the follow-up campaign ignores the gate and sends a new asset instead of the dead one.

Kick off a 5-Day Link-Tracked Outreach Blitz Send 25 personalized emails on Monday, each with a unique UTM-tagged link pointing to your GitHub repo’s README anchor "#demo". Use utm_source=outreach&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=week19 so Google Analytics later shows which subject line drove the most clones.

Set an 8-digit backup code as the lock-screen PIN; if your phone bricks you can grab any Android, authenticate, and pull the 2FA codes from the locked entry stored in the same drive. Single-use tokens; laser ten and seal them.

Turn on "Storage Saver" in the online panel; it runs zero recompression to DNG, so the 15 GB holds roughly 1 100 24-Mpix files after the prior shrink. Check quota every week with rclone about remote:; when 13 GB is reached, off-load finished edits to a 128-bit AES-encrypted 7-Zip archive on an external SSD and free the space in one click.Prior to departing, enable two-factor authentication: Profile → Safety → Two-step → App-based. Snap the QR with Aegis; jot the 16-digit recovery key on an index card stored with your passport. Drop SMS fallback—port-out thieves own it in 180 seconds.

Store the finished string as a Chrome bookmark: create a new bookmark, set location to javascript:window.open('https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1aB2C3D/edit#gid=76543210&range=B12:F30','_blank'), and drag it to the bookmarks bar. One tap launches the tab, framed to the exact cells, zero scrolling required.

Export the GA4 report to BigQuery; run SELECT traffic_source.source, COUNT(*) FROM events WHERE event_name='file_download' GROUP BY 1 to compare reach across partner directories without manual CSV merges.

If you copy a folder instead of a file, the same gesture grabs a longer URL; the ID still rests between the first /folders/ and the next slash. Delete the surplus, prefix https://drive.google.com/uc?export=download&id=, and the folder’s contents become downloadable via wget.

Keep every asset–styles, scripts, media–inside the one repo; local paths load faster and avoid CORS warnings. Enable Actions → Pages → Deploy from branch, select main / (root) to trigger auto rebuilds on every push.

Default permission tweak: before you copy the link, switch the dropdown from "Restricted" to "Anyone with the link"; otherwise the converted address returns a 403. Do it a single time–sub-docs inherit the setting, sparing you repeated taps.

Mass-produce 50 links at once: dump the raw IDs into column A of a sheet, enter =HYPERLINK("https://drive.[Google Drive direct Link Generator](https://Git.Whistledev.com/charlinebuss90/8180111/-/issues/5).com/uc?export=download&id="&A1,"download") in B1, drag down. Grab column B and drop it into your email platform–every recipient gets a instant fetch.

File stack peaks at 30; older versions auto-delete after 30 days. Need longevity? Pin the revision: linger the three-dot menu beside the version, pick Pin indefinitely. Each locked copy counts toward storage quota.

Shrink RAW files into 15 GB free tier without quality loss Batch .CR3, .NEF or .ARW to lossless DNG with Adobe DNG Converter 16.x, checking "Lossy" OFF and "Embed Fast Load Data" OFF; file size shrinks 20–40 % while every raw value stays intact. Bulk-run a folder, then run Leanify (leanify -i 7 *.dng) to trim unused metadata and gain another 5–8 %.

Press the original address → Duplicate. Open Notes → Insert. Highlight only the segment uc?id= and drop it over file/d/. Strip everything after the file hash (usually 33 chars) and append &export=download. Press open; the browser asks where to store the file.

Average 40 MB PDF completes in 4 s on 5G; the same file served through the preview page needs two extra hops and takes 9 s.

Long-press any file in the portable app, press the overflow icon, select "Copy link", then replace everything after /file/d/ with uc?export=download&id= and insert the ID. The final URL ends in &export=download and initiates an immediate download on any device–no sign-in, bypasses the splash screen.
