Sharing a board
The three visibility levels, what the public viewer shows, and what happens when somebody forks your board.
Every board starts private. Share offers three levels, and the middle one is the reason there are three rather than two.
| Level | Who can read it |
|---|---|
| Private | Only you. |
| Anyone with the link | Readable by anyone you send the link to. Not listed anywhere, and not indexed by search engines. |
| Public | Readable by anyone, and search engines may index it. |
The board's current level is shown as a badge on the board and in your list, so you can tell at a glance which of your boards are reachable.
The link#
A share link appears once the board leaves Private. It uses a separate public id, not the board's own id - so the link you hand out cannot be edited into an address for anything else of yours.
Going back to Private makes the link stop working.
What a visitor sees#
A shared board opens in a read-only viewer. Visitors can look, pan and zoom, and the animation plays if the board has one. They cannot edit it, and they do not need a Revquix account.
Forking#
The viewer offers Fork this into your Revquix, which copies the board into the visitor's own account.
