Sharing via public link

After creating a dashboard, you have multiple ways to share it with your colleague’s or partners. One of the options is to share via a public link. Let me show you how!

Activate public link

In the dashboard editor, you can click on the "share" icon at the top right corner of the canvas. After the sharing window pops up, select the "Share Link" tab.

First, toggle on the option to share by public link, as seen in the example below.

Options

Up to two more options can then appear:

1. The first option asks if you would like to add your newly created dashboard to the public Luzmo library (Note: the dataset within the dashboard will remain confidential and will NOT show up in the Luzmo public library).

2. The second option is a notice that appears if the datasets used by this dashboard are not accessible (also visible in the example) and prompts you to share the datasets as well (otherwise the dashboard will not be able to query the data!). A unique short URL is also generated; anyone with the link will be able to visit the published dashboard, similar to sharing documents on Dropbox, Google Drive or WeTransfer. This URL can be copied, or opened in a new window.

Sharing link per dashboard language

If you have multiple languages configured for your dashboard (read more about that here) you can generate a share link for each specific language that you have configured!

Public sharing & embedding

Please note we strongly advise against turning the share link on when you also embed your dashboards in your application.
The embedding token will take preference over the share URL, thus the rights and filters you set for your user will be applied. However, when the embedding token of the user expires and the dashboard is still open, or the token is set incorrectly on the frontend component, any (new) data query (e.g. using a filter on the dashboard) will fall back to the public share existing on the dataset. It is thus strongly recommended not to turn this on when embedding your dashboards.
You can turn off the possibility to enable the public share URL by setting the flag "flag_private_sharing" to false. You can set this via the flags property for Luzmo users (see the User resource or add it to the embedding token).
If a dashboard is publicly shared you will see the an Earth globe icon next to its name in the dashboards overview page and a "Via shareable link" in the sharing modal.
