Sharing reports with a share link

In addition to sharing via email or by sending to Slack, you can also share reports with a link.

To get a link, go to the Reports tab and locate the report that you want to share a link to (if you’re within a dashboard, you can get to this view by selecting exit dashboard under the main menu).

The share feature can be found in the report context menu.

When you select Share, a modal shown and the share link is copied to the clipboard. You can send the link and the recipient can view the report by following the link.

If you want to share the report with someone who doesn’t have a Screenful account, you can reveal more options by clicking the Make this a public link.

If you check the Enable public sharing checkbox, the link is made public so that anyone can follow the link and see the report in read-only mode.

While the link has a random character sequence so that it’s not possible to guess the link, anyone with the link can access the chart. Share the link only with people who you would like to see the data.

You can disable the link anytime by unchecking the Enable public sharing checkbox. If you disable a share link, it will be disabled permanently. If you enable sharing again, a new share link is generated, and the previously shared link remains disabled.
