TABLE OF CONTENTS
Share Link Explorer is located on the Explorer toolbar on the left of the screen next to other Explorers.
To be able to access Share Link Explorer the role of the user must include Share permission in at least one of the work zones of the project.
Note: any share link ever created in the project is visible in the corresponding work zones it was created. Information about them is available and editable.
Structure
Structure of Share Link Explorer content mimics work zone structure with corresponding folders for each individual work zone where all the related share links are stored. Share link counter is on the right to the project and each individual work zone.
Content of Share Link Explorer depends on the work zone chosen in Work Zone Explorer, meaning that only folders corresponding to active work zones are displayed.
Actions
It's possible to create a share link directly from Share Link Explorer actions bar by clicking on the work zone that needs to be shared followed by a click on Create share link button.
Follow the process of creating a share link in Create share link menu appearing on the right. For more information, refer to the following article: Share.
Note: all the links have to be named to be distinguished among others. The name of the link will also be appearing as a name of the tab in the browser once this link is opened.
At the top of the menu for both Create share link and Edit share link preceded by the word Share the work zone name reflects the work zone name where the share link is stored. It does indicate also that this work zone is the one being shared.
For an existing share link the actions bar includes:
- Information - opens a menu on the right with all Properties of a share link, including an easy-to-copy full URL of the link and a QR-code for better usability. Details hold the information about creation date and link creator.
- Edit link - opens a corresponding Edit share link menu on the right where the parameters of a share link could be adjusted. Adjust the 3D View to get the exact position to be displayed upon opening, then click Update.
- Delete - removes share link from the project after a confirmation.
- Copy link - adds the link to cache to be further pasted anywhere.
