# Share via link

> Create a shareable link to a teamspace, folder, dashboard, or snapshot — pick the interaction type, access type, and expiration when the link is created.

Adriel supports shareable links for four resource types: **teamspace**, **folder**, **dashboard**, and **snapshot**. The flow is common across all four — open the **Share** modal, click **Create link**, then configure how the link behaves.

Recipients of a share link do not need an Adriel login.

## What can be shared

| Resource      | Shared content                                                |
| ------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Teamspace** | Every dashboard in the teamspace                              |
| **Folder**    | Every dashboard in the folder                                 |
| **Dashboard** | A single dashboard                                            |
| **Snapshot**  | A frozen-in-time copy of a dashboard (always non-interactive) |

Each resource can hold up to 5 independent share links. Different links can use different interaction types, access types, or expirations — for example, an internal stakeholder might get interactive access while a client gets a non-interactive password-protected link to the same dashboard.

## Create a share link

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open the Share modal">
    Open the Share modal from the action that matches the resource:

    * **Teamspace** — hover the teamspace name in the left sidebar, click the vertical ellipsis, and choose **Share**.
    * **Folder** — open the folder's menu and choose **Share**.
    * **Dashboard** — click the **Share** icon in the dashboard header.
    * **Snapshot** — open the snapshot and click **Share**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Click Create link">
    The Share modal shows existing links for the resource (if any). Click **Create link** to start a new one. The configuration fields appear after the link is created.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Pick the interaction type">
    * **Interactive** — recipients can hover widgets, drill into breakdowns, and change the date range.
    * **Non-interactive** — every control is locked; recipients see exactly what was shared.

    Snapshots are always non-interactive.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Pick the access type">
    * **Public** — no extra gating; anyone with the URL can view.
    * **Password** — recipients enter a shared password before viewing.
    * **Email Verification** — each recipient is sent a one-time code, and only verified emails can view.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Set a URL expiration (optional)">
    Pick an expiration date, or click **No expiration** to leave the link open-ended. Expired links return a "link expired" page to recipients.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Copy and send the URL">
    Copy the URL from the modal and send it — email, Slack, or any other delivery method.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## After creation, what's editable

Once a link is created, **interaction type and access type are locked**. To change either, delete the link and create a new one.

Editable on an existing link:

* Expiration date
* Password value (for **Password** links)
* Viewer allowlist (for **Email Verification** links)
* **Interactive settings** — for interactive links, the fine-grained interaction controls (which controls stay live vs locked for recipients) can be adjusted after creation

## Manage existing links

In the Share modal, each existing link shows the access type, interaction type, and expiration date. Per-link actions:

* **Edit** — open settings to change expiration, password, viewer list, or interactive settings.
* **Copy link** — copy the URL to clipboard.
* **Delete** — revoke the link immediately.
* **Resend invitation** — only on **Email Verification** links, rate-limited to once every 5 seconds.

## Permissions

Creating, editing, and deleting share links requires **View and edit** or **Admin** role. See [Permissions and access](/data-sources/managing/permissions-and-access).

## Troubleshooting

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="Why does a shareable link say the subscription is not active, or why does a paying customer show Trial?">
    The workspace's Trial/Paid badge is driven by an active Stripe Subscription. A one-off Stripe invoice charge is not a subscription, so the badge stays on Trial and the account would not be auto-charged next cycle. A proper Stripe Subscription has to be created or linked for a recurring paying account — contact Adriel to correct the badge.

    Shareable links likewise depend on an active subscription: an expired demo or trial workspace returns `subscription not active` until the trial is extended or the subscription is set up in the back office.
