1. An apparatus, comprising:
- a processor; and
a memory communicatively coupled to the processor, the memory to store an application having a media share component operative on the processor to receive a request to associate a media file with a document having a document network storage location, the media share component comprising a file manager module operative to determine a media file network storage location as a file-type specific location associated with the document network storage location and an associated file-type of the media file, the media share component further operative to determine that a first link does not permit access to the media file network storage location for the media file by a document recipient and in response, retrieve a second link that does permit access by the document recipient.

Abstract
Techniques to determine network storage for sharing media files are described. An apparatus may comprise a processor and a memory communicatively coupled to the processor. The memory may store an application having a media share component operative to receive a request to associate a media file with a document having a document network storage location. The media share component may comprise multiple software modules, including a file manager module. The file manager module may be operative to determine a media file network storage location for the media file based on the document network storage location. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

10. A computer-implement method, comprising:
-
receiving, by a processor circuit, a request to associate a media file with a document having a document network storage location; determining that a network storage type for the document network storage location comprises a shared storage type for a defined set of users, the defined set of users comprising users authorized to access the document network storage location; determining a media file network storage location for the media file as a file-type specific location associated with the document network storage location, a file-type of the media file, and the network storage type; and generating a valid link to the determined media file network storage location for the defined set of users. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14)

15. An article of manufacture comprising a storage medium containing instructions that when executed cause a system to:
-
receive a request to associate a media file with a document having a document network storage location; determine a network storage type for the document network storage location, the network storage type comprising an individual storage type; determine a media file network storage location for the media file as a file-type specific location associated with the document network storage location, an associated file-type of the media file, and the network storage type; and retrieve a tokenized anonymous view universal resource locator (URL) for the media file network storage location. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18)
