# How do I share a chat?

Create a Snapshot or Live link to a chat, choose who can open it and when it expires, then copy the link or revoke it later.

These steps are for the web app. Temporary chats cannot be shared.

## Create a link

1. Open the chat and click **Share conversation** in the top bar. You can also click the more actions button on the chat's row in the sidebar and choose **Share…**.
2. Under **Link type**, choose:
   - **Snapshot**: a fixed copy of the chat up to the latest message.
   - **Live**: the whole chat, including new messages as they arrive.
3. Under **Who can open it**, choose:
   - **Public**: anyone with the link.
   - **Workspace**: members of this workspace. This option appears only in a team workspace.
   - **Specific people**: only the email addresses you add. Each person must use a verified email address.
4. Optional: choose an expiry from **Never expires**, **1 day**, **7 days** or **30 days**.
5. Click **Create and copy link**. The link is copied to your clipboard.

## Copy, change or revoke a link

Under **Existing links**, you can:

- copy a link,
- click **Edit access for** a link to change who can open it, or
- click **Revoke** to stop the link working. Confirm with **Revoke** in the "Revoke this link?" prompt.

Once a link is revoked, nobody can open it with that link.

## Share up to one message

To share the chat as it was at one message, hover over that message and click **Share**. Its tooltip reads "Share the conversation up to this message". This link is always a Snapshot that stops at that message, and later messages stay private.
