Cloud File direct URL is a Chrome add-on developed by vteivans. It falls under the category of Browsers and is classified as an Add-ons & Tools program. This add-on allows users to create direct URLs to their Google Drive files from the current tab.

Often, when users want to embed a screenshot from Google Drive, they are only provided with a website URL to view the file, rather than a direct link. This can be inconvenient, especially when sharing images in pull requests on platforms like GitHub or in chat applications like Flowdock, Slack, or Skype.

With Cloud File direct URL, users can easily generate direct links to their Google Drive files, making it more convenient to share files in various contexts. Whether it's for professional collaboration or personal use, this add-on simplifies the process of sharing files from Google Drive.
