Sharing Whiteboards

Share whiteboards with your team or create a public read-only link.

Whiteboards can be shared with specific teammates, made visible to everyone in your workspace, or published as a public read-only link.

Open the Share dialog

Click the Share button in the whiteboard header. The Share dialog opens.

You can also share from the Boards list by right-clicking a board card and selecting Share.

Visibility settings

Choose who can access the board:

VisibilityWho can view
PrivateOnly you and people you explicitly share with
WorkspaceAnyone in the workspace can view the board
PublicAnyone with the share link can view — no login required

Select the visibility level from the dropdown in the Share dialog.

After setting visibility to Workspace or Public, a share link appears in the dialog. Click Copy link to copy it.

  • Public links open at /share/board/[token] — a standalone read-only view with no workspace chrome.
  • Private links are internal URLs — only workspace members who are signed in can open them.

You can also copy a link from the whiteboard header using the ⋯ menu → Copy link. If the board is public, this copies the public share URL. If private, it copies the internal link with a note that it's workspace-only.

Share with specific people

In the Share dialog, search for a teammate by name, select them, and set their permission level. Shared members appear in the list in the Share dialog and can be removed at any time.

Revoke access

  • Remove a specific person: Find them in the Share dialog and click remove.
  • Revoke public access: Change visibility back to Private. The previous public link stops working.

Regenerate the share token

If a public link has been shared accidentally or needs to be invalidated, click Regenerate link in the Share dialog. This creates a new token and makes the old link permanently invalid.

What external viewers see

When someone opens a public board link, they see:

  • The full whiteboard canvas with all elements
  • The board title and emoji
  • Zoom and pan controls
  • No editing tools — the canvas is read-only
  • No comment pins or sidebar — comments are workspace-only

The public view respects the current canvas state at the time of viewing.
