Sharing & Public Review
Cuevue lets you securely share a version with clients, stakeholders, or other external reviewers without creating accounts. This is handled through Public Review Links.
Create and Copy a Review Link#
Links are generated per version from the review header:
- Open the version in the Review Player.
- Click Share.
- On first click, Cuevue creates the link and copies it to your clipboard.
- On later clicks, Share just re-copies the existing link.
Link Settings#
Use the Settings icon beside Share to manage link behavior:
- Public access: Anyone with the link, or Members & guests only to restrict it to signed-in Space members.
- Password: Require a password to open this link.
- Expires: Set an optional date/time when the link becomes invalid.
- Allow media download: Control whether reviewers can download the shared audio/video file.
- Require approval before download: Reviewers must submit an approval decision before they can download, even when download is allowed.
- Allow approvals: Let reviewers submit an approval status on the version at all.
- Allow voice notes: Let reviewers record voice-note comments.
- Ask Cue for reviewers: Let reviewers ask Cue questions about the shared content. Off by default, and gated to a Studio plan. Reviewer usage draws from the space owner's AI credits and is capped per day.
- Show all versions: Give reviewers the version switcher instead of locking them to the one you shared — this also unlocks Comparing Versions for them.
- Reviewer watermark: Tile the reviewer's name diagonally over video playback. Requires a Studio plan.
- Send via email: Email the link directly to a reviewer.
- Remove review link: Immediately invalidates the URL.
- Lock version / Duplicate version: Lock a draft, or duplicate a locked version.
- Keyboard shortcuts: Open the in-app shortcut reference.
The Public Reviewer Experience#
When someone opens a shared link, they see a restricted public workspace:
- Optional security gate: If the link has a password set, they're asked for it before they can view anything.
- Name attribution: They are prompted for a reviewer name before commenting.
- Limited access: They see only the shared version unless you turn on Show all versions.
- Feedback tools: They can leave Comments, navigate by Transcript, and submit approval status.
- Ask Cue: When enabled on the link, reviewers can ask Cue questions about the shared content, same as members.
Security & Governance#
Access Control#
Set a password on any individual review link from its Settings menu — reviewers must enter it before they can open that link.
Revoking Access#
If you shared the wrong version or need to end access, remove the link in the settings menu. The URL is invalid immediately and returns a not found page.
Tab View Sharing#
In addition to sharing specific media versions, you can share any view tab (List, Board, Timeline, Calendar, etc.) as a public link. This is different from review links — it shares the project management view, not the media player.
Creating a Shared View#
- Right-click on a view tab in the tab bar.
- Select Share View.
- A link is generated that captures the current view configuration (tab type, grouping, filters, visible columns).
- Copy the link and share it with anyone.
Shared View Permissions#
Control what viewers can do via the share settings popover:
- Public access (default) or Members only — restrict to authenticated Space members.
- Password protection — require a password for non-members.
- Field editing — allow or prevent viewers from editing field values.
- View interaction — allow or prevent viewers from sorting, filtering, and grouping.
- Expiration date — set an optional date when the link becomes invalid.
Revoking a Shared View#
Open the share settings for the tab and click Revoke. The link becomes invalid immediately.
Canvas Sharing#
You can also share an entire Canvas.
- Use Case: Give clients a clean status page with milestones, deliverables, and live updates.
- Dynamic Updates: Shared Canvas pages update automatically as your team edits internally.
