A share link is a public URL for one note. Anyone who has it can open and read that note, no account needed. It covers only that note: not the Outcome it belongs to, not your history, nothing else in your work.

Turning it on

Open a note in the work view, open the share menu, and choose “share…”. The first time you use it on a note, Donna states what is about to happen: “anyone with this link can read this note.” Confirm with “share & copy,” or step back with “not now.”

What a recipient sees

A read-only page:
  • the note’s title and content
  • a “shared from Donna” footer
  • no comments, no editing, and none of your other work
A share link is a window onto the live note, not a snapshot. If you keep writing after sharing, the link shows the current version, not the version that existed the moment you shared it. Shared notes are marked not to be indexed. Search engines are told to skip them.

Asking Donna to send it

The share menu also offers “ask donna to send.” With a tool connected under Connections, such as email, Donna can draft the send, but nothing goes out until you confirm it yourself. If no tool is connected, the menu reads “connect a tool in settings to send this.”

Turning it off

Open the same share menu and choose “stop sharing.” The link dies immediately. Anyone who opens it afterward sees “This link isn’t active.” with no hint of what the note said or that it ever existed. While a note is shared, “copy link” in the same menu re-copies the current link anytime, so you never have to share it twice.
Sharing is not a backup, and a link is not addressed: anyone who has the URL can read the note, not only the person you meant to send it to.
