**The sharing link lets you share a preview of your interactive project for review and approval, via a web URL accessible from any browser (Chrome, Safari, Firefox, etc.) on all devices.**

It’s the ideal tool to share a test version, gather feedback, or present your project to clients or partners without requiring installation or download. To put it in your end users' hands, [publish it](https://docs.pandasuite.com/getting-started/publish-and-export-your-project/).

## Retrieve the sharing link

Each project has a unique sharing link.

In PandaSuite Studio, click **Share** in the top bar. The **Share the project** window opens on the preview link of your project.

1. At the top right, choose the link to share (this choice appears only when the project has a mobile link):
   - **Web**: opens in the browser, on every device.
   - **Mobile**: opens in the PandaSuite Viewer app when it is installed, otherwise in the browser.
2. Click **Copy** to copy the link, or **Open the link** to open it in your browser.
3. To open the project on a phone, scan the QR code. Click the code to display it larger.

The same link is in your dashboard: hover over the project, click **···**, then **Share…** The **Sharing** tab of the project settings shows the **Preview link** (**Web** or **Mobile**), its QR code, and the code to embed the project in a website.

## Send the sharing link

You can send your sharing link in several ways: copy and paste it, scan its QR code, send it by e-mail, or embed it in a web page.

### By e-mail

In the **Share the project** window, expand **Send e-mail**, enter your recipient’s e-mail address, then click **Send**. The e-mail contains the link selected at the top of the window (**Web** or **Mobile**).

## Password protection 👑

To secure access to your project, you can protect your sharing link with a password.

In your dashboard, hover over the project, click **···**, then **Security…** Select **Password protected**, set the **Token Expiration** and the **Password**, then click **Save Changes**.

### Access modes:

- **Public access**: anyone with the link can access the project.
- **Password protected**: users must enter a password to access the project.

### Security settings:

- **Password definition**: choose a custom password to restrict access.
- **Token Expiration**: how long a visitor stays signed in after entering the password: **5 minutes**, **1 hour**, **24 hours**, **7 days**, **30 days**, or **1 year**. Once this time has passed, the visitor must enter the password again. The password itself does not expire.

These options allow you to precisely control who can view your project and how often visitors must enter the password.
