Sharing via Private Links

Note

You must be a writer or an administrator in a space to enable public links for its contents.

A private link is a web address that you can give to anyone in a domain to allow them to view and edit (writer role at least) content available on Lumis 3D. A person who receives a private link has to log in to Lumis 3D to view the shared content.

A file for which the private link is active is shown with a image30.png logo.

Sharing via public links is a two-step process:

  1. First, activate the public link for the content you want to share.

  2. Then, provide the public link address to the person you want to share the content with.

When you deactivate a private link, the link address is permanently deleted. This means that if you share a link address with someone, then deactivate the file's private link, their link address will no longer work.

If you plan to share the link again, just reactivate it in the Link sharing window.
