🔒 Permissions
Sharing content externally is limited to administrators and space coordinators. They can see active links and disable them from the admin panel in the Security tab.
A Story can be shared with users outside of Elium, by generating a publicly available web link. The link is created at the tap of a button and allows anyone to read the content of a Story. This feature is particularly useful when having to share a piece of knowledge with external users (e.g. partners, agencies, external consultants or staff).
Sharing a Story on the Web - generating the publicly visible link
Use the Share
button:
Click on 'Share to web'. When activated, this action generates the publicly visible link.
Click on 'Copy' to capture the generated link.
Share it with people outside your team or organization that do not have access to Elium.
Accessing a Story shared on the Web - reading the content
The recipients of the link will be able to open the link in any browser and access any elements of the shared Story, including embedded files or multi-language content. However, they will not be able to access any other content of the platform, except for the shared Story. Moreover, the reactions and comments on the Story will not be visible for people outside the platform so as to protect the privacy of users.
It is important to highlight that:
For security aspects, sharing content externally is temporarily limited to administrators and space coordinators. They can see active links and disable them from the admin panel in the Security tab.
This feature can be disabled for content sensitive platforms.
