Summary
A shared view link gives people a way to look at one view of your table without being invited to the base. Airtable puts it under Share and sync in the view toolbar, along with the options for that link.
Step-by-step guide
Step 1
Open Share and sync
Open the base and select the view you want to share. In the view toolbar, click **Share and sync**. A menu opens with the sharing and sync options for this view.
Step 2
Create a link to the view
In the menu, click **Create link to view**. Airtable generates a link for the view you have open, so check that the right view is selected first.
Step 3
Copy the share link
The panel now shows **Share link to this view** with the link in a text box. Click **Copy link** to copy it, then paste it wherever you want to send it.
Step 4
Open the link settings
Click **Link settings** below the link to see the options for who can use it and what they can see.
Step 5
Choose who can open the link
The settings include **Allow viewers to copy data out of this view**, **Show all fields in expanded records**, **Restrict access to an email domain**, and **Restrict access with a password**. Turn on the ones you need. The same screen has **Generate new link** and **Disable link** if you need to replace or turn off the link later.
Why this matters
You have a grid view that a client or teammate needs to look at, but you don't want to add them to the whole base. A view link lets you send one URL, and the link settings let you decide how much they can do with the data.
