# Send a file to another app

Sending a file requires three confirmations. Otherwise a file will not be sent. This is for your safety. 

## 1. Select files / folders

Use the selection mode to select multiple files / folders and select the share button <img src="/files/3cWbZhSJ3jkwi6xexiT3" alt="" data-size="line"> from the top menu.

You can also select the share button while viewing a certain file to send this file.

## 2. Choose the target app

A list will popup with all apps that can handle the selected files. Select the app you'd like to use as the target.

## 3. Proceed in the target app

The selected app will ask what you'd like to do with the files. That's the last point where you can cancel the process.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Tip:** Don't mix files and folders during a single send-request. This makes sure that your selected target app can properly read the files.
{% endhint %}

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.en.lockmypix.com/general/lockmypix-faqs/send-a-file-to-another-app.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
