    Megan​ can you still export a copy of the file? I have tried many ways to do so but I have only been able to share links. Please advise.

    Yes. On Android select Share, then Export and select the app you want to export the file to, such as an email app to send the file as an attachment. On iOS select Save to device, then select your app.

    It is directly exportable. It's just located under the option to save to the device.
