Permalinks
Permalinks
A SpreadsheetLIVE permalink is a unique internet address (URI) that references your spreadsheet document and can be emailed to other users to provide access to the document.
SpreadsheetLIVE permalinks allows you to share and collaborate on a SpreadsheetLIVE document with anyone, even non SpreadsheetLIVE users.
Permalinks are an advanced feature of SpreadsheetLIVE and are not available to standard subscription holders.
How to create a permalink
Creating a permalink is a very simple process.
The first step is to open your document in SpreadsheetLIVE.
Once your document is opened you will need to click the Permalink Wizard icon located towards the right-hand side of the SpreadsheetLIVE toolbar. If you are having trouble finding the Permalink Wizard icon, remember that if you hover the mouse cursor over an icon a tool tip will pop up letting you know the function of the icon.
The Permalink Wizard (shown below) allows you to select an expiry date for the permalink, a note that you can optionally choose to send to users as well as a list of email addresses that you would like to send the note to. Finally you can decide whether you would like to grant permalink users Read or Write permissions to the document. Permalink collaborators will be able to receive real-time updates regardless of their access level but they will require Write permissions if you would like them to be able to add to or modify the document.
Once you have made your selection, make sure that you select the Create Permalink button. After clicking Create Permalink, a new dialog box will open that contains the actual permalink that you can send to any people of your choice to provide them access to the SpreadsheetLIVE document.
