Your bucket. Your data. Our gallery.
The Cloud Gallery has two modes, both with the same direct-to-S3 architecture. Run on webQsee-provided storage (you pick one of six AWS regions; 7-day trial free, a 1-year item lifetime on paid tiers, extendable) or bring your own Amazon S3 / min.io bucket (paid plans, no item caps). The payload moves directly from browser to S3 in both modes. On provided storage it is stored with us, its recorded data encrypted in your browser first; on your own bucket webQsee's servers store metadata only, titles, descriptions, status. See the Cloud Storage guide for the full architecture comparison.
All features
Direct browser-to-storage. webQsee's backend never carries the bytes.
Most "cloud" features in dev tools mean shipping your data through somebody else's servers. webQsee doesn't. With your own bucket, the extension uses your S3 credentials to talk to it directly, uploads, downloads, lists, deletes, all client-to-storage with no intermediary. With provided storage, the bucket is ours: the browser uploads to it directly through short-lived presigned URLs, after encrypting the recorded data.
What webQsee's backend stores is the envelope of metadata needed to render a gallery: capture title, description, status flags, the share permissions matrix, and each item's encryption key, itself encrypted with a key of ours.
Privacy posture
- Payload never traverses webQsee's backend
- Recorded data encrypted in the browser before upload: always on provided storage, by a switch on your own bucket
- Metadata stored in webQsee's EU-hosted database
- Bucket credentials remain on your machine (Team edition shares connection params, never credentials)
- Bring your own bucket policy / lifecycle rules / encryption
- Delete in the gallery → delete in your bucket
Who can use the Cloud Gallery.
Free account, 7-day trial
Any free webQsee account can activate a one-time 7-day trial of webQsee-provided storage: up to 5 items, deleted automatically when the 7 days are up. No card, no bucket to set up.
Paid account, permanently
Pro, Studio and Enterprise subscribers keep the Cloud Gallery for good, with higher item caps, a 1-year item lifetime and the option of a bring-your-own bucket.
Invited team members
Members invited into a paying team inherit Cloud Gallery access for the duration of the invitation, no individual subscription required.
Or no account at all
Temporary share links do not use your Cloud Gallery and need no account whatsoever: the capture goes to short-lived webQsee storage and is deleted with the link. If all you want is to hand one capture to one person, that path is always open.
Amazon S3
The first-class storage target. Any region, any bucket configuration that supports the standard S3 API.
S3-compatible (min.io)
Self-hosting? Point webQsee at your min.io endpoint and the captures of your Cloud Gallery stay on your own infrastructure; only the gallery's metadata reaches webQsee.
Hand off to where your team already lives.
Once a capture is in your Cloud Gallery, sharing is a click. Pick who should be able to open it, copy the link, paste it wherever the conversation is happening.
- Within your team, visible to every member of the team
- Public link, anyone holding the URL can open it until it expires or you withdraw it
- Private link, restricted to your team
- Temporary public link, self-expiring, no account needed on either end
- Metadata travels with the link, title, description, status and your custom text
view.webqsee.com
Links open at view.webqsee.com, webQsee's web mode. Recipients get the full analyzer experience in a tab, without installing anything.
The custom text and metadata you attached to the share render around the capture, so the recipient knows exactly what they're looking at and why.
