Managing shares

Click Manage Shares [i] PB - Manage Share.png from the left navigation menu. Here you can control the access level, reshare permissions, and expiry for the shared users. 

Shared recipient view

The recipient will receive a notification email when it is shared.

  • Clicking View Proposal redirects the recipient to an email verification page.
  • A one-time password (OTP) is generated and sent to the recipient's email when they click View Proposal.
  • Entering the OTP navigates them to the proposal page.

Guest view (view and share access)

Guests with reshare permission can share the proposal with others. When sharing, guests can set access levels and permissions for recipients. However, these permissions are limited to the ones the guest themselves has.
