Settings & Administration

GyroidVault gives you full control over who has access to your library and how the system communicates. You can find these options in the Settings menu (assuming you are logged in as an administrator).

User Management

By default, GyroidVault is a private vault. You can create additional user accounts if you want to share access with family members or friends.

  • Go to the Users section in the settings.
  • You can add new users and give them their own login credentials.
  • This is great if multiple people in your household use the 3D printer and need access to the library.

Public Sharing

By default, anyone who can access your GyroidVault instance (for example, on your local home network) can already browse and view your models. User accounts are only required to manage the vault (upload, edit, delete).

However, if you want to share one specific model with someone outside your network (assuming your server is accessible), you can use the Share feature.

  • You can generate a unique, shareable link for a specific model.
  • Anyone with that specific link gets a clean page where they can view and download just that model.
  • They won't need an account, and they can't edit or delete your files.

SMTP (Email) Settings

GyroidVault can send email notifications (like password resets or system alerts). To enable this, you need to configure your SMTP server details.

  • Head to the SMTP Settings panel.
  • Enter your email provider's SMTP host (e.g., smtp.gmail.com), port (usually 587 or 465), and your credentials.
  • You can use standard email providers, or your own self-hosted mail server if you're running one.
