ShareX and tools

Set up ShareX

1. 1
   Download your config

   Sign in, then open Settings, Upload keys and ShareX and download a ShareX config. It holds an upload key of your own, so screenshots land in your account, Hidden until you choose otherwise.

   Upload keys and ShareX
2. 2
   Open the file

   ShareX asks whether to add 0raw as a custom uploader. Choose Yes, then make it your image uploader, and your file uploader for screen recordings.

3. 3
   Take a screenshot

   When the upload finishes, the page link is on your clipboard.

Upload keys

• Each config has its own key. See and revoke them in Settings, Upload keys and ShareX.
• A revoked key stops at once. Uploads with it fail with an error; they never turn into anonymous uploads.
• Each key has a default label for what it uploads: SFW, unless you choose Mature when you make it.

Coming from imgmeow

After the move, anonymous imgmeow configs keep working, also when they send to imgmeow.app, and the links they copy point to 0raw.io.

Configs downloaded while signed in to imgmeow carried a token that expired after 7 days. They do not work here; download a new one in settings.

Any other tool

Send the file as a form upload in a field named file, with your key as a bearer token. Flameshot, a shell script or a shortcut on your phone all work. Without a key the upload is anonymous: the links work, but it is in no account.

What comes back

The page link.

thumbnail_url

A small JPEG of the upload.

delete_url

A page that asks before it deletes, so a stray click deletes nothing.

What went wrong, in words, such as a revoked key or a file over the limit.
