--- title: "Browser extension" description: "Upload PDFs to EveryPage from Chrome or Edge, get a tracked share link and QR code, and see readership from the toolbar." canonical: "https://everypage.co/docs/integrations/browser-extension" plan: "free" last-updated: "2026-10-22" --- # Browser extension The EveryPage browser extension lets you share a PDF without leaving your browser. Pick a file in the toolbar popup, or right-click a PDF link or a PDF open in a tab. You get back a tracked share link and a QR code. It also lists your files, shows readership, and can send a desktop notification when someone reads one of your documents. It works in Chrome and Microsoft Edge. ## Install - **Chrome:** install it from the [Chrome Web Store](https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/mabijnbcecpjojgakopbiiapoanfapef). - **Edge:** search for "EveryPage" in Microsoft Edge Add-ons and install it from there. Pin the extension to your toolbar so the popup is one click away. ## Connect your account The extension needs an EveryPage account. A free account works. 1. Open the extension popup and click **Connect**. This opens the extension's settings page. 2. Click **Connect EveryPage account** and sign in to EveryPage. You sign in once. The extension gets a limited token that can upload PDFs, manage your links and read your readership counts, and nothing else. You can revoke it at any time from your [account page](https://everypage.co/account) under Connected apps, or click **Disconnect** on the extension's settings page. ### Use an API key instead If you prefer, open **Advanced: use an API key instead** on the settings page. Paste a key that starts with `ep_live_` and click **Save**. A key gives full access to your account, so treat it like a password. To remove it, click **Remove stored key**. If you have both, the sign-in token is used. ## Share a PDF ### From the popup 1. Open the popup and go to the **Upload** tab. 2. Choose a PDF, or drop one on the drop area. 3. Set the link options you want. Options your plan doesn't include stay visible but disabled, with a link to upgrade. 4. Click **Upload & get link**. The upload keeps running if you close the popup. ### From a PDF link or tab Right-click a link to a PDF, or right-click a PDF open in a browser tab, and choose **Share this PDF via EveryPage**. The extension downloads the file and uploads it. A notification shows **Fetching PDF…** and then **Share link ready**, with **Copy link** and **Open** buttons. The first time you share a PDF from a site, your browser asks for permission to read that site. The extension uses it only to download that one file. ## What you get back When the upload finishes, the popup shows: - The share link, with a **Copy** button. - A QR code for the link. - **Open link** and **Configure in app**, which opens the file's settings in EveryPage. - **Share another**, to start again. The link follows the same rules as any other EveryPage link. See [Share links and short IDs](https://everypage.co/docs/sharing/share-links-and-short-ids). ## Manage files and readership The popup has two more tabs. - **Files** lists your uploads. You can copy or open a link, edit its settings, or delete the file. - **Readership** shows reads across your files and a ranked list. Open a file for its detail. How much you see depends on your plan. ## Settings The extension's settings page has an **Activity notifications** section. Turn on **Notify me about activity on my documents**, then choose what to be told about: - **Reads**, on by default. - **Downloads**, off by default. This includes files you download yourself. - **Form fills**, which needs Pro. Use **Check every** to pick 1, 5 or 15 minutes. Checks run in the background, so notifications are not instant. A green dot appears on the toolbar icon when there is new activity. ## What the extension can access The extension's standing access is limited to everypage.co. For a PDF you right-click, it asks for access to that one site so it can download the file. It uploads only the PDFs you choose. For the full details, see the [extension privacy policy](https://everypage.co/extension-privacy). ## Related - [Share links and short IDs](https://everypage.co/docs/sharing/share-links-and-short-ids) - [API keys](https://everypage.co/docs/developers/api-keys)
