# Public Share

## Share Trainual subjects with people outside of your account like clients, contractors, and more.

If you've ever needed to onboard or relay info to a new freelancer, contractor, consultant, applicant, or client, you probably thought, "I already have this documented in Trainual — I wish I could just share it with them." Well, now you can! Share your Trainual content with the public (AKA anyone outside your account) with just a few clicks.

 

📝 **Please note**:

- Your subject **must be published** before you can use public share.
- Public share is **only available to Billing Admins and Admins**. Even if a Manager has editing capabilities for a subject, they won't be able to enable public share.
- Any [**uploaded files**](https://help.trainual.com/en/articles/5575036-upload-files?hsLang=en) added in a subject that has been publicly shared will inherit your account's Trainual URL and will reroute visitors to log in to your Trainual account. You will want to **[quickly embed these items as PDFs](https://help.trainual.com/en/articles/6004563-embed-pdfs-with-quick-embeds?hsLang=en)** in the platform to be viewable in public share.

To enable Public Share in your account: 

1. **Expand the Account options** from the left-hand navigation menu.
2. Choose **Settings**.
3. On the Content tab, in the "creating and sharing content section, toggle the "Enable "Public share" feature" option **on**.

 To share a subject outside your account:

1. Navigate to the "**Content**" **page** from the left-hand menu.
   
    
2. **Open your** **subject** by locating it within the tab where it currently "lives" — Company, Policies, or Processes.
   
    
3. Click the "**Share**" button under "People and groups."

4. Press the **"Public Share"** button on the bottom left.

5. Turn on the **"Allow public sharing"** toggle.

6. Click "**Copy link**" to copy this subject's link to your clipboard. You can share this link however you want — email, social media, blogs, and more!
   
    
   
   The coolest part? It will completely reflect your current **[Trainual branding styles](https://help.trainual.com/en/articles/5561499-brand-styles?hsLang=en)** (logo & colors) and will automatically update when changes to those settings are made.

**🔥 Tip:** Want to help others in your industry or your clients by sharing one of your best practices? Keep the "**Allow duplication toggle**" on to help out your contacts— that way, they'll be able to copy your best practices directly into their new or existing Trainual account to make it their own.

 To stop sharing a subject outside your account:

1. Navigate to the "**Content**" **page** from the left-hand menu.
   
    
2. **Open your** **subject** by locating it within the tab where it currently "lives" — Company, Policies, or Processes.
   
    
3. Click the "**Share**" button under "People and groups."
   
    
4. Turn off the **"Allow public sharing"** toggle**.**
   
    
   
   ![](https://help.trainual.com/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/Screenshot+2023-09-15+at+2_26_38+PM-1.png)
5. When you do this, your public sharing link will temporarily become void, and nobody with the link can see your subject.

 To permanently change a subject's public sharing link:

1. Navigate to the "**Content**" **page** from the left-hand menu.
   
    
2. **Open your** **subject** by locating it within the tab where it currently "lives" — Company, Policies, or Processes.
   
    
3. Click the "**Share**" button under "People and groups."
   
    
4. **Click the refresh icon** to the right of the share link.
   
    
5. A confirmation screen will populate. Press the "**Refresh"** button.

![](https://help.trainual.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/Screenshot+2023-09-15+at+2_27_20+PM-1.png?width=533&name=Screenshot+2023-09-15+at+2_27_20+PM-1.png)

 

❗️ Remember, doing this will create *a brand new link* for you to share and will *deactivate* any previously generated links. When this happens, anyone with an old link cannot access your content. You won't be able to get your old link back — so **refresh your link with caution**.

 

📝 **Please note**: Remember that you won't be able to track completions or views — so it's best to assign content to your team members and use the public share feature for freelancers, contractors, consultants, applicants, and clients who do not have a seat in your Trainual account.
