Hey all,
I just released a Home Assistant SkySend add-on that lets you self-host secure file sharing directly alongside Home Assistant.
SkySend is a modern, lightweight file sharing platform that makes it easy to securely share files with family, friends, or coworkers without relying on third-party cloud services. Running it as a Home Assistant add-on makes deployment and management incredibly simple.
Some highlights:
- Automatically uses the same SSL certificate as Home Assistant, so you don’t have to manage a separate certificate for SkySend.
- Supports OpenID Connect (OIDC) authentication, allowing users to sign in with your existing identity provider (Authentik, Keycloak, Entra ID, Okta, Google, and many others).
- Secure file uploads and sharing with a clean, modern web interface.
- Fully self-hosted, so your files stay under your control.
- Simple installation and configuration through the Home Assistant Add-on Store.
I originally built this because I wanted a simple way to host SkySend on my Home Assistant server. After getting everything working cleanly, I figured others might find it useful too.
